These aren't hypotheticals. They're headlines from the past few months. And the data confirms what the headlines suggest
The threat is growing — and organizations are behind.
Workplace violence has been the #1 security concern for corporate security leaders every year since 2021. It's not new. It's accelerating (Security Magazine, 2025).
46% of chief security officers say threats against their people have increased in the last two years — rising to 66% in the tech sector alone (Allied Universal, 2025).
Your people feel it — even if they're not telling you.
42% of workers feel neutral, unsafe, or very unsafe on the job. Nearly half your workforce lacks confidence in their own safety (OSHA Outreach, 2025).
Only 26% of employees say their safety concerns are "always" taken seriously by management. 61% say "sometimes." That gap is where incidents happen (OSHA Outreach, 2025).
Some industries are hit harder than others — but no one is immune.
75% of all nonfatal workplace violence occurs in healthcare and social service settings — the people whose job is to help others are the most likely to be attacked (NIOSH).
46% of hospitality workers report witnessing workplace violence — the highest rate of any sector surveyed (Traliant, 2025).
The cost of doing nothing is real.
Organizations that suffered a single security incident lost an average of $9 million in revenue. Investors say a physical security event can reduce a company's value by up to 32% (Allied Universal, 2025).
Assess: Pre-contact risk assessment. Every meeting isn't the same risk — your protective measures should match your risk level.
Prepare: Set conditions in your favor. Room setup, positioning, reducing isolation, increasing exit options.
Detect: Read the warning signs early using the ABCDs of Awareness — Appearance, Behavior, Communication, Display. Spot pre-violence indicators before they escalate.
Respond: Close the Condition Orange Gap — the critical moment between recognizing danger and taking action. Response options from de-escalation to the Basic Defensive Response to the Tactical Twos.
Aid: Basic trauma medical skills. Self-defense, self-extract, self-treat. Be your own first responder in the first 60 seconds.
