Abstract

"Focus on Human Resources" piece on a concept bill by Rep. Jeremy Fischer (D-Presque Isle) to address workplace violence and training for Maine businesses. In all, 400 workplace assaults occurred in Maine between 2002 and 2003. Johna Lovely of Mapleton has been on a campaign to improve workplace safety since her daughter, Erin Sperrey, was allegedly killed by a co-worker at Tim Horton's in Caribou last year. With details on why businesses should offer formal training and have a formal policy in place, on businesses both large and small that are proactive on the issue, and on the basics of establishing a workplace violence prevention program.
