California’s new SB 553 law requires all employers establish a compliant workplace violence prevention strategy and initiate training by July 1, 2024.
Similarly, New York's recent Retail Worker Safety Act requires that all retailers, with more than 10 employees, provide a violence prevention plan and train retail employees. Emtrain’s Workplace Violence Prevention Training is specifically designed to meet all CA SB 553 and NY Retail Worker Safety Act training mandates.
This workplace violence prevention training course provides important protection for employees by showing how they can spot classic red flag situations and to minimize the potential for violent episodes in the workplace. It also walks employees through an action plan of how to respond if and when workplace violence happens
