Partnership for Healthier Workplaces
Over 60 major and numerous small employers are partnering with the government to address the growing issue of people being out of work due to ill health.
This joint effort, developed in response to Sir Charlie Mayfield's Keep Britain Working Review, aims to prevent ill-health, support employees in staying at work, and help employers build healthier and more resilient workplaces.
The Review estimates that one in five working-age adults is out of work due to health reasons, resulting in a £85 billion annual cost to businesses from sickness, turnover, and lost productivity.
Major brands such as British Airways, Google, and John Lewis, as well as Mayoral Combined Authorities and SMEs, are among the early adopters of the proposals outlined in the Review.
These proposals will help refine workplace health approaches over the next three years, building an evidence base for effective strategies.
