Work-related violence, assault at work - verbal and physical, is a real and growing problem. It can include physical assault, threats or verbal abuse. An assault in the workplace is any form of physical violence against an employee, whether by a colleague, manager, customer or patient. If you have been threatened by, or assaulted by a work colleague, you could be entitled to claim for compensation.
