Investigate employers who are cited in coroner's suicide report

Petition Details

We ask the Government to create a body to investigate any employer in cases where an employee has taken their own life and the employer has been cited in a Prevention of Future Deaths (PFD) report by a coroner.

Additional Information

Employers should be investigated, including any excessive pressures they place on their employees.

We believe that work pressures can contribute to suicidal thoughts. To earn a wage should not cost someone their health or their life. It should be compulsory that if the Coroner have cited action or inaction by an employer to be a contributing factor in their PFD report, then a Government body should investigate that workplace to determine their work ethics/practices/duties. If found responsible, the body should have powers to require employers to implement reforms.
