CAL-OSHA's New Workplace Violence Rule

Make sure you're up to speed on California OSHA's new workplace violence requirements which go into effect in July of 2024!

Thank you for this and many other videos. I am teaching WPV this month to a large propane company in CA. This info is super helpful to me!!

[@AllySafety]

I'm glad it was helpful!

[@thesonofslam]

Wow.

Hi, we are not operating in California. But is it likely that comparable regulations will be enforced in other states, and when?

[@AllySafety]

Yes, from what I heard it is likely but federal OSHA moves pretty slow so we’re probably looking at a few years. A lot of big organizations are starting to implement workplace violence prevention procedures both to reduce risk and get ahead of legislation.

I am curious to know how these stats compare to Canada

[@AllySafety]

I'm not really sure off the top of my head but I would guess there would be some similarities.

I'm not saying workplace violence isn't an issue, but those stats look highly misleading to me. The percentage of men in hazardous jobs is a lot higher than women, so women are less likely to be killed in accident, so it skews to percentage of women's workplace death. I'd like to see that BLS report. I can't find a breakdown by gender on their website, only a breakdown by industry. From what I am seeing Sales jobs are the most likely to face homicide whereas Service jobs are the most likely to face non-fatal workplace violence. Construction and Production were combined less than half the number of homicides as sales, and neither one showed up in the top 5 of non-fatal workplace violence.

It's not necessarily how hazardous the job is that makes the workplace violence levels high - it's the function of the job and the exposure to potentially dangerous individuals. That's why the number is so high in areas like nursing. Women are also much more likely to be killed by a violent ex than men and experience other types of violence like rape. It's not that the numbers are skewed it's that the sources of injuries and death differ. Here's the NSC report on workplace violence being in the top 5 causes: www.nsc.org/workplace/safety-topics/workplace-violence We also used the BLS report you cite. In addition here's some data from the CDC that breaks down gender and ethnicity: www.cdc.gov/niosh/violence/about/?CDC_AAref_Val=www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/violence/fastfacts.html

It did say in the video that men are more likely to die in workplace accidents, but women are more often killed and injured via workplace violence.
