    Workplace violence added to health, safety regulations By David Howell and Jessica Leeder
    'This is part of Work Safe Alberta, which is the big initiative for reducing injuries and fatalities in Alberta that happen within the workplace,' Human Resources Minister Clint Dunford said Thursday. 'As we got looking at this, we realized the incident rate in violence was just too great to ignore.'

    Under the new rules, employers will be required to develop policies and procedures for dealing with violence, defined as 'the attempted, threatened or actual conduct of a person that causes or is likely to cause physical injury.'
