Suicide (work)

Suicide (work) refers to the phenomenon where employees intentionally harm themselves as a response to stress, burnout, or unresolved personal or work-related issues. It is a complex interplay of mental health, workplace environment, and social factors, often linked to feelings of hopelessness, despair, or inability to cope. Addressing this issue involves increasing awareness, providing mental health support, fostering a supportive work culture, and reducing stigma. Early intervention and accessible resources are essential to prevent such tragedies and promote well-being within the workplace.
