Workplace violence can affect any organization, regardless of size, industry, or location. From employee conflicts and threatening behavior to harassment, domestic violence spillover, and targeted acts of violence, organizations face a growing need to understand and manage risks before incidents occur. Drewry Consulting Group provides Workplace Violence Risk Assessments that help organizations identify vulnerabilities, evaluate existing prevention capabilities, and develop strategies to reduce risk and strengthen employee safety.
Our assessments provide leadership with a clear understanding of workplace violence risks and a practical roadmap for building a safer, more resilient organization.
Many organizations have policies addressing workplace violence, but few have thoroughly evaluated whether their programs, procedures, and capabilities are sufficient to prevent, identify, and respond to potential threats.
A Workplace Violence Risk Assessment helps organizations:
A comprehensive assessment provides an objective evaluation of where risks exist, how they may impact the organization, and what steps can be taken to strengthen prevention efforts.
Drewry Consulting Group utilizes a structured and multidisciplinary methodology based on industry best practices, threat management principles, and workplace violence prevention standards.
Organizational Risk Analysis
We evaluate organizational characteristics, operating environments, workforce dynamics, incident history, and other risk factors that may influence workplace violence exposure.
Policy and Program Review
Our consultants assess workplace violence prevention policies, reporting systems, response procedures, employee support resources, and governance structures to identify strengths and areas for improvement.
Threat Assessment Capability Evaluation
We review the organization's ability to identify concerning behaviors, assess threats, manage cases, and implement effective intervention strategies.
Physical and Operational Security Review
Workplace violence prevention extends beyond policies. We evaluate security measures, access controls, visitor management procedures, emergency response capabilities, and other operational safeguards that support employee protection.
Stakeholder Engagement
Interviews and workshops with leadership, human resources, security personnel, safety professionals, legal counsel, and operational stakeholders provide insight into organizational culture, practices, and challenges.
Risk Prioritization and Recommendations
Findings are prioritized based on likelihood, consequence, existing controls, and organizational impact. Recommendations are designed to be practical, sustainable, and aligned with organizational objectives.
Workplace violence prevention requires more than security expertise. It requires an understanding of human behavior, organizational culture, risk management, leadership, and intervention strategies.
Drewry Consulting Group brings extensive experience in:
Our approach focuses on prevention, early intervention, and practical risk reduction strategies that strengthen both safety and organizational effectiveness.
Workplace Violence Risk Assessments may include evaluation of:
Each assessment is customized to the organization's specific environment, workforce, and risk profile.
Museums, libraries, archives, and cultural institutions often manage complex interactions among staff, volunteers, contractors, researchers, visitors, and members of the public. Assessments evaluate employee safety practices, visitor-related risks, behavioral incident management procedures, and workplace violence prevention capabilities.
Higher education institutions face challenges involving students, faculty, staff, visitors, and residential populations. Assessments examine behavioral intervention protocols, reporting systems, campus threat assessment processes, employee safety measures, and organizational preparedness.
Schools benefit from assessments that evaluate violence prevention policies, multidisciplinary collaboration, behavioral intervention processes, emergency procedures, and staff preparedness efforts.
Healthcare employees are among the workers most frequently exposed to workplace violence risks. Assessments focus on patient-related violence risks, reporting systems, staff protection measures, intervention protocols, and workplace safety programs.
Faith-based organizations often seek balanced approaches that preserve openness and accessibility while protecting staff, volunteers, congregants, and visitors. Assessments identify opportunities to strengthen prevention and response capabilities.
Organizations face risks ranging from employee conflict and harassment to insider threats and domestic violence concerns. Assessments provide leadership with a structured understanding of risk exposure and recommendations for improvement.
A large nonprofit organization sought an independent assessment of its workplace violence prevention program after leaders recognized inconsistencies in reporting practices, uncertainty regarding threat management responsibilities, and concerns about organizational preparedness.
While no major incidents had occurred, leadership wanted confidence that the organization could effectively identify and manage future concerns.
Drewry Consulting Group conducted a comprehensive assessment that included:
The assessment identified opportunities to improve behavioral threat assessment procedures, clarify reporting pathways, strengthen management training, improve case documentation practices, and formalize multidisciplinary threat management responsibilities.
Leadership received a prioritized roadmap for strengthening prevention capabilities. Recommendations included policy updates, training initiatives, threat assessment team development, and enhancements to reporting and intervention processes. The organization was able to significantly improve its readiness to identify and address workplace violence concerns before they escalated.
