Employers Must Monitor Workloads to Protect Staff Wellbeing
UNISON general secretary Christina McAnea commented on the publication of Sir Charlie Mayfield's Keep Britain Working review, stating:
"It's in all our interests that workers keep well and are supported back to their jobs should they fall ill or get injured. Prevention is key to stopping staff being signed off in the first place. That means managers providing the right help early on."
A key priority for employers should be keeping people with disabilities in jobs, introducing robust standards for suitable and timely workplace adjustments. Additionally, raising statutory sick pay would prevent staff from working while poorly, risking their health and that of their colleagues.
