Project: Workplace Health, Safety, and Security with a Focus on Workplace Violence Objective: This project is designed to enhance your understanding of workplace health, safety, and security, with a particular focus on addressing and preventing workplace violence. You will explore the role of federal legislation, strategies for creating a safe work environment, and the integration of emergency preparedness plans that include measures to prevent and respond to incidents of workplace violence. Additionally, you will examine how physical security and cybersecurity measures can work together to mitigate the risks of workplace violence. Instructions: Research and Report: Federal Legislation on Workplace Violence (200-300 words) Start by selecting a key piece of federal legislation or regulation related to workplace violence prevention (e.g., OSHA’s General Duty Clause, the Violence Against Women Act, etc.).

Prevention Strategies: Outline the steps the organization will take to prevent workplace violence, including security measures, behavioral threat assessments, and employee training. Response Procedures: Develop clear response procedures for various types of workplace violence incidents, (e.g., lockdowns, communication plans, and coordination with law enforcement). Integration of Cybersecurity: Discuss how cybersecurity measures are integrated into the emergency preparedness plan, particularly in scenarios where cyber threats could facilitate or exacerbate workplace violence (e.g., breaches of security systems, data theft related to employee information). Submission Guidelines: The assignment should be a minimum of 800 Use APA style for citations and references. Include at least three scholarly sources, in addition to your textbook. Submit your assignment as a single document in MS Word format.
