Abstract:

Medical personnel, working in hospitals, are highly exposed to organizational terrorism in the recent years. Organizational terrorism may be an inward factor i.e., terrorism within the hospital (internal conflicts, administration-related workers, conflicts among different workers and against the organization) or external terrorism from third parties. In case of a medical failure and the patient dies, the doctor is threatened, manhandled or killed, at times. These crimes are increasingly reported not only in Iraq, but across the globe.
