Recommendation 16

16 Paragraph: 105

Conduct research on employee attitudes and barriers to occupational health take-up via the SME pilot.

Conclusion
DWP should also use the SME subsidy pilot to conduct research on employee attitudes to occupational health and barriers to take-up. This should be done with a view to establishing a requirement for employees to participate in occupational health services following an extended health-related absence from work to support their return to the workplace.
