The number of band 3-5 prison officers who have died whilst working at HMPPS can be found in table 11b of the latest HMPPS workforce statistics publication tables at: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/708056/hr-publication-tables-march-2018.xlsx

The statistics breakdown is not specified and the majority are likely to be natural causes.
