A workplace suicide policy should help people know what to look out for, what to do in a crisis, and how to create a safer culture for both employees and customers. This policy template gives you a practical starting point for suicide prevention, early intervention and postvention support in the workplace.

The policy covers prevention, crisis response, safer language, support after a suicide, signposting and the wider steps an organisation can take to reduce risk and respond well.

When someone is acting under a Power of Attorney, teams need to know what they can do, what they cannot do, and how to handle the situation properly.

This useful guide helps businesses look more carefully at how they communicate with customers, where understanding can break down, and what teams can do to make decisions easier, clearer and more accessible.

The guide covers common types of economic abuse, possible indicators, how to respond to customers and where to signpost for specialist help.
