From busy retail stores and hospitality venues through to disability and aged care services, security operations and corporate offices, this plan provides a structured, legally informed approach to preventing and managing customer aggression.
Developed by WHS specialists, it aligns with Australian work health and safety legislation and current guidance on psychosocial hazards and occupational violence.
