Some steps that companies and organizations can take to prevent or reduce the amount of workplace violence include providing security through the use of video surveillance, additional lighting, guards, and alarm systems, ensuring that

Know your people, coworkers, close ones, and if you notice a sudden change just ask and make yourself available.
