What will be an ideal response?


Type I—Criminal Intent. This offender has no legitimate relationship to the workplace or the victim and usually enters the workplace to commit a criminal action such as a robbery or theft. Common victims of
Type I offenders are small, late-night retail establishments, including convenience stores and restaurants, and taxi drivers.
Type 2—Customer/Client/Patients. This offender is the recipient of some service provided by the victim or workplace and may be either a current or former client, patient, student, customer, or inmate or person
under correctional supervision (e.g., on probation or parole).
Type 3—Co-worker. This offender has an employment-related involvement with the workplace. The act of violence is usually committed by a current or former employee, supervisor, or manager who has a dispute with another employee of the workplace. This type of workplace violence offender is usually referred to as the “disgruntled employee” and is often someone who has been fired, demoted, or lost benefits. When death results from the violence, if the victim or victims were of higher authority than the perpetrator, the crime may be called authority homicide.
Type 4—Personal. This offender has an indirect involvement with the workplace because of a relationship with an employee. The offender may be a current or former spouse or partner, someone who was in a dating relationship with the employee, or a relative or friend. Essentially, the perpetrator follows the employee into the workplace from the outside.
