Employers hope it never happens to them, but the possibility of a terrorist attack in a workplace, whether it be in a factory or a nightclub, is now a grim reality. Even if an employer appears to be unlikely target, example: San Bernardino, it can still happen, resulting in serious injury or death.
As a staffing firm, you assign employees to different clients every day with the expectation that they will be safe, especially if the employer has an outstanding safety record. You can never be 100 percent sure that your employees won’t be the victims of a “lone wolf” terrorist attack, which is the nature of the attacks in the U.S.
But, you can take steps to mitigate the risk. Where will your employees be working? Will they be in a large building with hundreds of employees? Will they be on duty during a busy shift? What is the layout? What is the security like? How does an employer handle disgruntled/fired employees? A PEO can help you address these questions, so you can lessen your workers’ comp exposure.
