Harassment refers to any behaviors that demean, embarrass, humiliate, or alarm. C. Intimidation is any expressed intention to do harm of any kind. D. Violence is always a physical attack.

Answer 1

The answer would be B.  Work place reports come into Human Resource offices among many companies nationwide. Nearly 2 million workers report having been victims  of  violence each year.  And many of those acts are not even reported, therefore it is said that the amount could be about 10 million.

Workplace violence is any act or threat of physical attack, intimidation, or harassment.  Violence is not always a physical attack.  There is also psychological violence, depravation, verbal abuse, and neglect and there are many others.  

Workplace violence which is rather explained in options B C D, is what makes people report these millions of occurrences each year.
