Crime in the Workplace Statistics are Alarming!

• 26% of all light industrial applicants have a criminal record
  
• 67% of criminals are re-arrested within 3 years of release from prison
  
• 70% of illegal drug users have full-time jobs
  
• 1.7M violent incidents are committed against employees at work annually
  
• There are approximately 900 workplace homocides annually

Employer Liability
Employers have an obligation to provide a safe work environment for all employees. If they fail to use reasonable care and hire someone that they knew or should have known presented a risk of harm to a third party, that employer is liable and can be sued for the actions of that employee.

• In the case of Smith v. Amtrak, an employee was awarded $3.5M after being shot by a co-worker.  The attacker had a history of violent behavior.
• An employer was held liable for the negligent hiring and retention of an employee with a criminal record who subsequently raped a female co-employee.
