Rebecca Baker, chair of Bracewell’s labor and employment group, Dr. Kostas A. Katsavdakis, one of the country’s leading experts on threat assessment, and Seth DuCharme, the former principal associate deputy attorney general of the United States who is now a partner in Bracewell’s government enforcement and investigations group, discuss how advanced planning and rapid informed decision making can create a safe environment and help prevent workplace violence and legal consequences for employers and employees.

Discussion topics include:

• how employers can acquire and implement reliable tools to detect indicators of an individual’s mobilization to violence

• how those tools can be synchronized with legal, policy and operational efforts so that decision-makers can act quickly to protect their employees from internal and external threats
