Stalking, harassment, and murder in the workplace

About this book

"Researched and written by two specialists in human resource management and workplace criminal law, here is a book that lays out clearly, objectively, and responsibly the facts of crimes committed against people in work environments. It provides workable, well-studied means to prevent them. Schell and Lanteigne give you the "red flag" indicators you need, plus a detailed analysis of the literature, court cases, findings, and other data you also require to implement effective anti-stalking, anti-harassment programs in your own organization. With its copious case studies, not only is the book informative and authoritative, it gives you a clear sense of this disturbing reality. You come to understand how stalking victims react, how they may minimize the crime initially, and how they try to hide it from their supervisors. You also gain insight into the minds and motivations of stalkers themselves. The result is an important contribution to the literature on a growing hazard for people in the workplace, and an essential resource for executives and managers who must cope with it."--BOOK JACKET.
