There were over 18,500 working days lost among the LFB last year due to mental health concerns.
By Jacob EvansStaff taking days off due to stress, anxiety and depression rose by more than 20% in the last year, and by over 40% since 2018.London Assembly member, Anne Clarke, said the figures show the brigade is on the verge of a "mental health crisis".
Ms Clarke added: "These shocking figures are a damning indictment of austerity and the budget cuts that have ripped our public services apart."Responding to the criticism, the Home Office says "individual fire brigades were responsible for the health and wellbeing of their own staff" and that funding for fire services had increased every year since 2018/19, with services set to receive around £2.6 billion in 2023/24.
Officers at City Hall said "improvements in the brigade's commitment to mental health awareness" contributed to the rise, alongside "external circumstances" from the pandemic.
