Workplace violence; Workplace violence among healthcare workers; Workplace violence intervention programmes |
| Core Tip |
Workplace violence has become an escalating global public health concern, affecting a growing number of healthcare workers each year. Countless professionals suffer physical, psychological, and occupational harm as a result of such incidents. Government-implemented violence prevention strategies have largely focused on the management of violent episodes rather than their prevention, offering limited and short-term solutions. However, sustainable and effective outcomes require a broad and integrated approach that addresses the issue comprehensively. Intervention programs implemented at a single level-whether individual, organizational, or societal-have proven insufficient on their own. Therefore, there is a pressing need for a comprehensive, multi-level intervention framework that simultaneously targets all contributing factors. The results of such an approach are expected to inform public health policies and guide the development of evidence-based strategies to protect healthcare workers and improve workplace safety. |
