• Description:
  Psychiatric healthcare workers are frequently exposed to workplace aggression. Research has shown that educating supervisors how to provide work-family support can be effective in improving work and well-being outcomes for employees. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of family-supportive supervisor behaviors (FSSB) on two types of workplace aggression: patient-initiated physical aggression and coworker-initiated psychological aggression. Survey data from 417 healthcare workers in two psychiatric hospitals were analyzed. This is the first study to examine the influence that family-supportive supervisor behaviors have on workplace aggression in relation to employee well-being and work. [Description provided by NIOSH]
