The high rate of reported workplace violence demonstrates that the existing safeguards that aim to protect the staff from abusive patients and relatives are inadequate. We observed a considerable level of nurse exposure to workplace violence.

Nurses were unlikely to report violence to hospital managers, and 40% of nurses were unaware of any existing policies within the hospital for reducing violence. Nurses working in the emergency department and outpatient clinics were more likely to report having experienced violence. Relatives of hospital patients were responsible for most of the violence. The participants reported exposure to verbal abuse (64% CI: 59-70%), bullying-mobbing (29% CI: 24-34%) and physical violence (12% CI: 9-16%) at least once during the previous year. Over 70% of the nurses felt worried about workplace violence. Three hundred and one nurses responded to the questionnaire (a response rate of 73%). Finally, in order to analyze the relationships among different variables in the study, T-test and Chi-Square test were used. The questionnaire was adapted from a standardized questionnaire designed collaboratively by the International Labor Office (ILO), the International Health Organization (IHO), the International Council of Nurses (ICN), and the Public Services International (PSI). We surveyed the nurses in a cross-sectional design in 2010. The aim of this study was to measure nurses’ exposure to workplace violence in one of the major teaching hospitals in Tehran in 2010.

Workplace violence is one of the factors which can strongly reduce job satisfaction and the quality of working life of nurses.
