Recommendation 6

We wholeheartedly support the ambition in the Keep Britain Working Report to transform the way employers manage the health of their employees and thereby prevent people from falling out of work and into economic inactivity. If it succeeds, disabled people, who leave work at a higher rate than non-disabled people, could be among those who benefit most. It is, though, too early to assess its chances of success, because there is simply not enough clarity around what the Workplace Health Provision will be and, in particular, whether it will involve the provision of occupational health services to small employers. (Conclusion, Paragraph 47)
