| dc.description.notes | Presents the results of a US study that examined the epidemiology of 361 workplace homicides in North Carolina as identified from the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. Results showed that victims were most likely to be male, older and self-employed workers, from an ethnic minority and working in specific industries. However, in analysing the category of dispute-related homicides it was found that among men, the dispute was most likely to be work-related, but among women victims, 75% of dispute-related homicides occurred in the context of an estranged intimate relationship. In all 12 of these homicides, the victims had separated from their partners; in 40% of the cases, the medical examiner noted a history of domestic violence; and in two of the cases, the women had filed domestic violence-related charges against the perpetrator on the day of the attack. Among the study’s recommendations is that employers address the issue of domestic violence by giving adequate support, protection and resources to female employees involved in a violent relationship. Identifies resources that have been developed to prevent and deal with domestic violence in the workplace. | en |
