In many cases, it will be appropriate to contact local law enforcement agencies when employees report threats of domestic violence or harassment to security and there is a reasonable risk that an incident of violence may occur at the workplace. Local police may have information that could be helpful in assessing the level of threat against the employee while she is at work; for example, they may have dealt with the perpetrator in the past and be familiar with his patterns of violence. It is important to inform the victim that the police will be notified, and if possible, to obtain the victim's permission beforehand.
