Thank you for your request for information about the following:

I would like to know:

1) How many staff the NHS Business Services Authority has.

2) How many staff in the NHS Business Services Authority have died each year for the last 5 years in RTCs.

3) Of those, I would like to know if they were working at the time, commuting to work, or off duty. It would also be good to know what percentage of the total deaths were in a RTC (for the police it was 53%).

4) I would also like to know if you have a Road safety strategy like the MoD (Defence Road Safety Strategy - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)), and if you have guidance on managing fatigue along the lines of what the ORR are currently consulting on for rial staff (Managing rail staff fatigue: draft version for consultation (orr.gov.uk).

Your request was received on 23 May 2024 and I am dealing with it under the terms of the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
