Bill Summary
Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim April 2025, as Workplace Violence Prevention Month in the State of New York
AI Summary
This resolution seeks to memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim April 2025 as Workplace Violence Prevention Month in New York, highlighting the critical importance of creating safe work environments. The resolution emphasizes that every individual deserves a workplace free from violence, with particular attention to healthcare workers who are reported to be five times more likely to experience workplace violence compared to employees in other industries. Recognizing that April is already federally acknowledged as Workplace Violence Prevention Awareness Month, the resolution calls attention to the national commitment to addressing this crucial issue. The legislative body formally requests that Governor Hochul officially designate the month, and further resolves to transmit copies of the resolution to the Governor, the New York American College of Emergency Physicians, the New York State Emergency Nurses Association, and the American Nurses Association of New York, thereby supporting efforts to raise awareness and prevent workplace violence.
