Many insurers and HSE have been advised by Professor Tom Cox on the subject of stress at work. He has been a leading light behind the development of insight, guidance and standards in this field.

He is soon to retire from his main post in Nottingham, but will be following two new ones!

    Tom co-authored the LPC guidance on stress at work SHE:15 (1998) ISBN 0 902167 88-X. Still basically correct but the common law precedents have moved on. The mark of a true expert is that he is always willing to consider new evidence. This apparently applies after work as well - after one of the LPC editorial meetings in Nottingham we went off to a Mexican restaurant staffed entirely by Chinese nationals and ordered kangaroo curry. Who needs orthodoxy!

    Dickins v O2 remains a concern even 4 years after it was decided. The Radar service commented that mental breakdown cannot be assumed to be an indivisible event, without expert evidence to that effect. Even if indivisible in a given case, there is every reason to think that acceleration would provide a valid defence. Radar database 8#7-8 4 explains in detail.
