Exposure to Violent Attacks by Patients
All employers have a duty to take reasonable care for the safety of their staff. Employers must, by law, provide a safe working environment for their employees.
This duty of care also covers employers in the medical and care professions. Employers in these industries are under a duty to take steps to avoid or minimise the risks of attacks on employees by patients.
