abstract="A descriptive exploratory survey was used to investigate the occurrence of physical workplace violence among health care workers as well as the complaints and responses to such violence. The questionnaire was used for collecting data from a sample of 355 workers. Results showed that 25.6% of hospital workers reported physical aggression at any time of the working life, 8.5% in the last year. Injured workers showed significantly higher environmental complaint score than other workers. The results of the study indicated the importance of adopting hospital policies for dealing with incidents of violence.<p /> <p>Language: it</p>",
