A metal scooter is thrown at the employee's head by a customer

Description:

A horrific incident occurred in a Woolworths store when a furious customer flung a metal scooter at a worker's head. A string of violent episodes involving angry customers included this horrific attack. Brad Banducci, the CEO of Woolworths Group, made the decision to invest in improved CCTV surveillance and employee training to handle hostile patrons in reaction to the growing violence. At 2,000 cases, these attacks—which include threats with weapons—rose by 50% from the year before.
