The NHS 2025 staff survey found that one in seven English health service workers experienced violence from patients or the public, while more than a quarter reported harassment, bullying, and abuse—the highest levels in three years. Sexual harassment reached record levels, with nearly one in ten NHS workers reporting unwanted sexual behavior, and Black and minority ethnic staff facing significantly higher rates of abuse and discrimination than white colleagues.
