AN UNSUITABLE JOB FOR A WOMAN is a 1982 British mystery crime drama film in which a young private detective investigates the case of a man who supposedly took his own life.

suicide and self-harm
There is bloody detail in the aftermath of an off-screen suicide, as well as sight of police photographs of what appears to be another suicide. A detective nearly dies while testing a method of suicide as part of an investigation. There are also frequent verbal suicide references.
nudity
There is a short sequence of breast nudity and moderate threat when, after off-screen sex, a man roughly grabs a naked woman by her hair and arm in order to subject her to a brief interrogation.
additional issues
There is infrequent use of strong language (‘f**k’); milder terms include ‘whore’, ‘bloody’ and ‘sod’. Other issues include infrequent moderate sex references, a bloodless shooting, and a moderate ‘jump scare’ sequence in which an unseen attacker lunges at a woman and throws her into a well.
