Description
The social work profession has long been involved with the issues of aggression, conflict, and violence. Child abuse, domestic violence, crime and punishment, gang violence, and community and school safety are examples of the types of circumstances social workers address on a regular basis. A circumstance less immediately associated with social work concerns is that of violence in the workplace, most especially that of aggression and assault between social workers and the individuals with whom they come in contact in their professional roles. Such incidents, typically occurring in the workplace and often referred to as client violence, have become a real, albeit overlooked, part of social work direct practice. Workplace violence, in general, has emerged fairly recently as a public concern. As high profile reports of violence have found their way to the media, public attention has been focused on the issue. Reports of workplace violence in the helping professions have been no exception, and news reports of violent attacks on social workers by current or former clients have appeared in both the professional and public media (see, for example, Dillon, 1992; Landers, 1993; Latta, 2002; "Tampa Man Convicted," 2002).
