1.Workplace violence is a very serious issue, and knowing the triggers of workplace violence can make a big difference.

As mentioned in the article, a feeling of unfairness, stress was mentioned, but there are other factors. Some other factors may be that the employee is having trouble in their home life, they could have a problem with another employee, or they are just going through a rough point in their life.

2.For all of the measures previously stated, the main way I would try to find out is through surveys.

I would do a confidential survey where only people who had to know would know about the results of the test.

3.Home Life- give the employee some time off if needed, recommend a family counselor if needed.

Another employee-. Have a meeting between each employee and then another one with both present to solve the problem.

Rough point in life- The only thing I could think of for this one was to either recommend a counselor, or be that person’s counselor.

#!) As in any organization, it is vital to identify a hostile work environment and take steps to reduce that hostility. There are a wide variety of psychological aspects that may result in aggressive behavior.Something from early childhood, or a phobia over something irrational, can trigger someone. Marital and financial difficulties seem to be a major cause for aggressive demeanors.

#2) The most simplest form of conflict resolution is simply listening and talking to the individual. While in the Army, I listened to my junior enlisted's problems. Chain of Command frowns upon this, calling it "fraternization". I call it "personal maintenance", as is with maintenance on a vehicle or a weapon system.Listening can nip the problem in the bud so to speak, and handle issues at the lowest level, before it effects the organization and work performance. The irony is that after the Army, those same junior enlisted are leading successful and happy lives after the military, and I have created a positive bond with those whom I listened and gave advice to.

#3) The first step is listening. That will help you identify the root problems in the first place. Afterwards, you can brainstorm viable solutions. There are a wide variety of social services, free of charge, that can aid with martial problems with a spouse or significant other, such as a community chaplain at your local church. There are budget saving tips available on the internet, complete with a budget saving planner. Lastly, a sympathetic ear is normally all it takes to understand and help resolve issues before it gets out of hand. Also, depending on the organization you work for, they may have some services available, such as a counselor for example.
