Following a non-fatal shooting incident at an Orlando Circle K, OSHA cited the company for failing to maintain a safe work environment, emphasizing the need for proper protective measures.
A troubling analysis of OSHA's investigation into Circle K highlights a disturbing trend: since 2014, five employees have lost their lives to gun violence, often in late-night shifts.
With a staggering 14-fold increase in workplace violence risk among convenience store employees compared to private industry workers, taking proactive measures against violence is critically necessary.
Effective deterrents against late-night workplace violence identified by experts include implementing security cameras, cash management devices, improved lighting, and establishing signage to inform customers of cash limits.
