Security personnel are among the occupation groups with the highest risk of workplace violence, but the latest Finnish estimates on the prevalence of violence are based on data collected 15 years ago, after which the sector and its regulation have evolved considerably. The aim of this article is to present results from a recent survey of security personnel conducted in early 2018. In addition to presenting new estimates on the 12-month prevalence of violent victimization and fear of crime, and the factors associated with them, we examine experiences of criminal justice processes. The results show high rates of victimization among security personnel, with a particularly high risk among doormen and guards working in hospitals and health care centers. More than half of the respondents have appeared in court as witnesses. We discuss these results in the light of recent legal reforms and research evidence based on administrative data.

芬兰安全人员的暴力受害、对犯罪的恐惧和刑事司法程序的经验：来自调查数据的证据

保安人员是工作场所暴力风险最高的职业群体之一，但芬兰对暴力流行率的最新估计是基于 15 年前收集的数据，此后该行业及其监管发生了很大变化。本文的目的是展示 2018 年初最近对安全人员进行的一项调查的结果。 除了对 12 个月暴力受害和犯罪恐惧的流行率以及与之相关的因素进行新的估计之外，我们还研究了刑事司法程序的经验。结果显示，保安人员的受害率很高，在医院和医疗保健中心工作的门卫和警卫的风险尤其高。超过一半的受访者作为证人出庭。
