In the collection of data, the researchers used 40 question survey forms created according to literature. The data was evaluated using the ki-core test with the number percentage calculations in the computer environment. Results: 69.7 percent of the survey participants were women, 76.8 percent were nurses and 57.6 percent worked in emergency services for 0-5 years. 90,4% of employees were subjected to oral violence and 23,2% were subjected to physical violence. The majority of oral violence occurred by the patient’s close. After the exposure to violence, the workers have seen a lot of anger and cold feelings from work. The reporting/reporting rate of physical violence was determined at 64%, while the psychological support rates were very low for those who were exposed to violence. For 1-5 years, the rates of violence in the emergency service workers are higher and the desire to change the unit in which the most people who are exposed to violence is determined. Consequently, it is believed that increased measures to ensure the safety of employees, the prevention of legal sanctions, and more effective and planned programmes to prevent violence in our country should be implemented.
