Source: 2012 NCCI Research Brief – Violence in the Workplace based on BLS Data Homicides and Assaults Continue to Decline


According to the 2012 Research Brief on Violence in the Workplace Report by NCCI work-related homicides and injuries due to workplace assaults remain well below levels observed in the mid- 1990s. This is consistent with the patterns of declines in rates of homicide and aggravated assaults reported for the country as a whole, although workplace homicides have declined more than the homicide rate generally, while workplace assaults have fallen in line with declines in aggravated assaults overall.
