Scottish Hazards will be raising awareness of International World Suicide Prevention Day on Sunday 10th September and, in particular, the often forgotten fact that some workers take their own lives due to intolerable working conditions including intolerable stress levels, unreasonable workloads, bullying and harassment.
Ahead of the day please take a few minutes to watch this NUJ video highlighting work related suicide and steps that can be taken to reduce the stress and distress suffered by, in this case, NUJ members. Helping prevent the distress that often leads to suicide also helps to prevent the years of pain and suffering for surviving family who have loved ones taken from them so cruelly and suddenly.
