The study found that male employees’ Propensity for Abusiveness (PAS) score predicted their workplace productivity in several ways, including the likelihood that they made mistakes on the job, missed work time, and were physically present but less than optimally productive while at work. The findings suggest that it is not only victims of intimate partner violence (IPV) who may experience reduced productivity in the workplace, but those with a propensity for abusiveness as well. The findings suggest that individuals prone to aggression against their intimate partners may be more likely than employees with a low propensity for abuse to be absent from work or miss portions of the workday, to under perform when they are on the job, to be feeling ill, and to make mistakes on the job. Increasingly, employers are considering the effect of IPV on the workforce and becoming involved in prevention efforts. Specifically, little is known about the economic consequences associated with employing IPV perpetrators. The purpose of this study was to quantitatively investigate the impact that propensity for abusiveness has on workplace productivity by assessing the productivity of a sample of 61 male workers (at a State agency in New England) by their propensity for abusive behavior.
