Statistics for 2011 show that over 4,600 people died in work related incidents and that about 10% of these deaths were workplace homicides. This book has one goal--to help you stay out of that 10%!
Violence in the workplace is an issue of growing concern to many and this book explores various aspects of that problem. But, more importantly, it offers numerous specific ideas and examples based on the real-world experiences of the author and others. While candidly admitting no book can offer all the answers (or even ask all the questions), Nick's conversational writing style engages the reader encouraging them to think and plan. He explains the critical importance of planning for and surviving the first ten to fifteen minutes of the typical attack. Sections include discussion of preparation such as putting together a "go bag" with key items, thoughts on improvised weapons, and the basics of traumatic wound care.
Believing that attitude is one of the keys to survival, Nick works to give the reader confidence by guiding them through planning and preparation. Should the unthinkable happen, that attitude can strengthen your resolve to make sure that, while everyone's time eventual comes, that time is "Not Today!"
