John Pring, 10 December 2020 Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) staff have had to be repeatedly reminded what to do when claimants threaten to take their own lives, following secret reviews into as many as six suicides linked to the benefit system. The reviews suggest that a series of suicides between 2014 and 2019 were linked to the failure of DWP staff to follow basic rules that had been introduced in 2009. -- https://www.disabilitynewsservice.com/dwp-staff-repeatedly-failed-to-follow-suicide-threat-guidance-secret-death-reviews-reveal/ |
