Abstract

Around 50 people a year commit suicide on London Underground by jumping in front of a train as it comes into a station. For the drivers involved, it is a shocking, and sometimes traumatic, event. Their employer has procedures in place to deal with the immediate aftermath of the event, but it also has an extensive structure in place to help the drivers deal with any feelings that come to surface in the days, weeks and months that follow. © 2002, MCB UP Limited
