Bill > J01603

This resolution, a formal request from the New York State Legislative Body, urges Governor Kathy Hochul to officially designate April 2026 as Workplace Violence Prevention Month across the state. The resolution highlights the importance of creating safe work environments free from violence, noting that healthcare workers are particularly vulnerable, being five times more likely to experience such incidents than employees in other industries. It also acknowledges that April is already recognized nationally for workplace violence prevention awareness, reinforcing the commitment to this critical issue for the well-being of all individuals and the stability of communities.
