Incident Reporting System

The law and regulations require a system designed and implemented by the agency to report any workplace violence incidents that occur in the workplace that includes:

• Recordkeeping and recording of workplace violence incidents (process to file an incident report with the agency and the agency’s recordkeeping of the filed reports)
• Employee reporting of concerns or incidents (process to file a complaint with the Department of Labor)

The agency cannot take retaliatory action against any employee who exercises their rights under this law. Retaliatory action is a discharge, suspension, demotion, penalization or discrimination against any employee, or other adverse employment action taken against an employee in the terms and conditions of employment.
