Recommendation
We further recommend that NHSE/I should develop a full and comprehensive definition of “workforce burnout”, and set out how the wellbeing of all NHS staff is being monitored and assessed. This information should be made available to us by the middle of October 2020, to enable us to scrutinise it in the course of our inquiry into Workforce Burnout and Resilience in the NHS and social care.

The measures I have outlined above are designed to mitigate the psychological impact of these pressures, however it is also critical that we continue to increase workforce supply and improve the retention of staff, and I provide further detail on how we are doing this in section four of this letter.
