Cleveland, OH, September 21, 2010...Timothy A. Dimoff, CPP, a workplace violence expert and author of Life Rage, sees a disturbing trend of women becoming more violent in the workplace. Dimoff states "Female violence has traditionally been low, but in the last 5 years there has been a spike in female workplace violence. Very recently we have seen female perpetrated violence in Philadelphia, Alabama, and even in Germany. Reasons for this may include videos on internet websites that portray and may even "romanticize or idealize" female violence; women who may feel trapped by their economic situation; frustration or anger at their jobs; fears or the feeling of desperation from getting fired or laid off; or personal issues. They may see violence as their only option."

Dimoff strongly stresses the importance of businesses conducting a workplace security assessment and having a good crisis plan in place that includes strong physical barriers to control access to the premises; the ability to lock down the premises; and training personnel to identify and to defuse potential violence.
