abstract="BACKGROUND:    Workplace violence (WPV) is a significant problem in both developed and developing countries among healthcare workers. The study aims to examine the perspective of resident doctors on various aspects of WPV to promote a better understanding of the complexity of the problem of WPV at a tertiary care center in India.    Material and Methods:    Seven focus group discussions were conducted with resident doctors from various departments, which were recruited through convenience and snowball sampling. <br><br>DISCUSSIONs were audio recorded and transcribed verbatim to English. Thematic analysis was done using Atlas. ti 8 to generate themes, subthemes, and codes from the discussions.    Results:    A total of 39 resident doctors with a mean age of 28.0 ± 3.8 years were recruited. The themes that emerged during the analysis are as follows: types of WPV, risk factors for WPV, the impact of WPV, and mitigation strategies for WPV.    Conclusion:    Exposure to WPV is not uncommon in India. Factors associated from individual to policy level are involved in subjugating the episodes of violence. <br><br>FINDINGS from this study will contribute in devising mitigation strategies for the same.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
