Suicide at Work: Intro to BS30480

This course represents a practical route to adopting the groundbreaking British Standard, BS 30480: Suicide and the Workplace.

  • Every year in the UK, more than 7,000 people die by suicide – that’s about 19 lives lost every single day
  • Suicide remains one of the leading causes of death among working-age adults
  • An estimated 10% of all suicides in the UK are work-related (Office for National Statistics)

This 90-minute, practical, micro-workshop is for those who want to move beyond awareness and start implementing BS 30480 in a realistic, sustainable way. You’ll leave with:

  • A clear understanding of what adoption looks like in real workplaces
  • A paced 3-month action plan, without overwhelm
  • Practical tools aligned to the recommended Five First Steps
  • Guidance on ownership, communication, support pathways, and postvention
  • Reassurance about what ‘good enough’ looks like as a starting point
