    Explore a comprehensive framework for recognizing and responding to behavioral warning signs before they escalate into violence.

    The escalation toward workplace violence rarely happens without warning signs. However, many organizations struggle to identify and appropriately respond to these early indicators, potentially missing crucial intervention opportunities. This challenge leaves both employees and organizations vulnerable to preventable incidents.

    Explore a comprehensive framework for recognizing and responding to behavioral warning signs before they escalate into violence. We review three main categories of behavioral indicators: questionable thoughts, extreme emotions, and concerning actions. Viewers will learn to identify critical changes in typical behavior patterns and understand the proper channels for reporting concerns.

    The session provides practical guidance on:

    - Identifying specific behavioral red flags

    - Understanding the benefits of early intervention

    - Implementing appropriate response protocols

    - Balancing between inaction and overreaction

    - Utilizing existing support services effectively

    We also discuss how to train employees company-wide so that all staff members gain the skills and confidence they need to recognize warning signs and respond appropriately, ensuring long-term retention of these critical safety concepts.
