Discuss the occupational safety and health issues of the staff concerned.

The Gold Mining Company is a nightclub venue that is popular during the months of November, December, and January for its Friday night dance events. The staff working at this venue are all temporary workers, and the turnover is high. During a conversation, two of the staff, Jason and Mark, find out that they have both been mugged on their way home from work in the early hours of the morning, but on different Friday nights. In both cases, the perpetrators waited in a nearby alley and threatened them with knives. Jason lost his wallet and $200, and Mark broke his ankle trying to run away. Candice, another employee, has been harassed by patrons and was once burned deliberately with a cigarette by a particularly drunk and obnoxious customer. Management gave her some cash to get medical attention. Discuss the occupational safety and health issues of the staff concerned. What are the responsibilities of the management in each of these cases? What are some solutions?
