Cultural Diversity: RACE AND ETHNICITY MUST BE CONSIDERED IN WORKPLACE SAFETY PLAN

摘要

An employee for 15 years at a cement plant in Cupertino, CA, arrived at a pre-dawn company safety meeting in October with a rifle and handgun in tow. Using rope and piece of plywood, he jammed shut a trailer door to trap about a dozen coworkers inside and then opened fire, killing three and wounding seven others. The motive for the rampage is still a little fuzzy, but racial tension seems to have been involved and has been an issue in several workplace rampage shootings in recent years.
