Abstract
Work place violence is the most distressing subject globally, and has been a concern for many decades affecting home and work environment.This cancer has even invaded health care sector worldwide. Nursing professionals whether they are at hospital or at academics institutions are subjected to violence. Although, it has been a burning issue, among nursing health care workers it has often gone unchecked, and people tend to accept it as the part of the system.
In this paper I would be discussing and deliberating that work place violence particularly verbal abuse is a serious matter and it can have negative consequences not only on person’s health but also on the productivity of the employee. This will be followed by some strategies to promote healthy work environment and how can we combat violence at individual, organizational and country level.
