estimated working days lost to work related ill health 2019/20
Over 19 million people in the UK have a chronic health condition and 5.7million more are acting as unpaid carers. NHS waiting times have increased, which means more people are struggling to access the treatment they need and the care system is saturated, making it difficult to access additional support.
These challenges can force many people to leave the workforce, in 2019/20, 32.5 million estimated working days were lost due to work related ill health. Understanding how to support people managing chronic health conditions can improve retention and recruitment, strengthen company culture and help build a flexible and futureproofed business.
Our training workshops provide practical advice and information to help managers feel confident and able to support their teams effectively. They cover:
- What are chronic health conditions and how can they impact your team
- Creating clear policies and procedures
- Legal requirements and understanding The Employment Rights Act 1996, The Health and Safety at Work and Equality Act 2010 and The Carers Leave Regulations 2024
- Reasonable adjustments: what they are and how they can be implemented
- Having difficult conversations
- Managing change and uncertainty
- Supporting people to return to work
