The Joint Commission classifies uncivil workplace communication as workplace violence since 2022, posing legal, financial, and health risks. This session outlines three steps for risk managers to foster a civil workplace, emphasizing communication strategies to identify, address, and prevent incivility. It concludes with advice on creating performance improvement plans to maintain a civil workplace culture.

A civil health care workplace supports safe, productive, efficient, and successful care of parents, employees, systems, and communities. And yet, few people have been untouched by uncivil interactions and experiences in the workplace. Since 2022, The Joint Commission has considered uncivil workplace communication and conduct a form of workplace violence, which increases legal, financial, and health risks within institutions. This session will present three steps risk managers can take to promote a civil workplace culture, including a variety of communication techniques that can be used to recognize, respond to, and ultimately prevent uncivil conduct. It will conclude with recommendations for risk managers who may need to develop performance improvement plans, including elements specifically aimed at recapturing and supporting an ongoing civil workplace culture.

Learning Objectives:

1. Describe the risks an uncivil workplace culture poses to people and institutions.

2. Apply communications techniques, tools, and skills to recognize, respond to, and prevent uncivil conduct.

3. List elements of performance improvement plans aimed at recapturing and supporting an ongoing civil workplace culture.
