A comedy drama laced with an acerbically surreal sensibility, Not Safe for Work follows Katherine and her disillusioned workmates as they readjust to their new life and new surroundings when they’re relocated to Northampton.
Chaotic civil servant Katherine is relocated to Northampton as part of the government cuts. There she encounters a motley crew of colleagues and immediately has to help her boss cover up their inefficiency.
Jeffries reveals the real reason she's in Northampton: to streamline the department. Katherine is preoccupied by the anniversary of a traumatic event from her past and makes a spectacle of herself at her welcome drinks.
The minister's aide, Martine, arrives from London to pile the pressure on the Northampton team. Katherine has to juggle protecting Danny from himself with actually getting some work done.
It's the day of the big presentation in London, and with Danny still missing and Jeffries dealing with her own issues, Anthony and Katherine have to present to the minister alone.
A week after the presentation, the department is still awaiting news on its fate. When news finally comes from the minister, Katherine faces some very difficult life decisions.
