What if your work risk comes from the people around you?
How would you handle it if you felt threatened at your job by a customer, colleague or supervisor?
Leslie Rhoton, sophomore, Lawrence High School
“It actually happened to me one time, so I called my supervisor and asked him what I should do. He gave me a way to contact him if it happened again.”
Kelly Jacob, junior, Lawrence High School
“If it was a regular co-worker, I would tell my boss about it and let them know that it was inappropriate behavior. If it was my supervisor, I would probably talk to my parents or my co-workers about it so I wouldn’t have to deal with it by myself.”
Kieran McBride, senior, Lawrence High School
“It depends on the situation. If someone is physically assaulting me compared to verbally assaulting me, I may handle things differently.”
