The Department for Work and Pensions takes seriously any declarations of intention to attempt suicide or self harm that are made by its customers. There is a clear, detailed action plan that staff and contractors must follow if a customer declares an intention to kill or harm him or herself. DWP also provides guidance to help deal with these incidents. I have arranged for a copy of DWP’s guidance “Managing Customer Declarations of Intention to Attempt Suicide or Self Harm” to be put in the Library.
