Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy: The role of human resource management in managing and mitigating the effects of workplace violence: An examination of nurses and personal care assistants working in aged care
Workplace violence is a critical challenge across healthcare services and aged care facilities in Australia and internationally. It has been argued that violence at work represents the highest recorded reason for clinician submission of formal complaints to management across Australian healthcare services. The purpose of the study "The role of human resource management in managing and mitigating the effects of workplace violence: An examination of nurses and personal care assistants working in aged care" is to provide a better understanding of the role of human resource management (HRM) practices in managing and mitigating the effects of workplace violence on nurses’ and personal care assistants’ (PCAs) mental health.
