| Abstract | Most manifestations of workplace violence, such as harassment, are now sanctioned in many countries. Considering this issue as resolved would however be a mistake since it still affects several workers, some of whom are managers working in the domain of firefighting. In the absence of scientific literature on workplace violence in this domain in Quebec, it becomes necessary to describe the occurring hostile behaviors to better understand this phenomenon. This article presents the results of a descriptive correlational study providing a quantitative portrait of the workplace violence experienced by 158 managers from the Quebec firefighting domain. The prevalence of workplace violence, the types of hostile behavior most frequently occurring in this domain as well as certain perpetrator’s characteristics will be presented to finally suggest a reflection about violence in the fire safety environment. |
