Requires healthcare and social service employers to create plans to protect workers from violence.
This bill would require many employers in healthcare and social services to create detailed plans to prevent workplace violence. These plans would include identifying risks, setting up safety measures, and training staff. This aims to make workplaces safer for employees like nurses, social workers, and other direct care providers.
Currently, federal guidance for preventing workplace violence in healthcare and social services is largely voluntary. If this bill becomes law, many employers in these fields would be legally required to create and follow detailed plans to prevent violence, train their staff, and report incidents, making these protections mandatory.
