"The UK faces a major challenge with respect to work and health. Recognising record levels of economic inactivity driven by poor health, the UK government has a policy programme of welfare reform and increased employment support, while commissioning an independent review of the role of employers with the Keep Britain Working Review. Echoing the conclusions of the Commission for Healthier Working Lives, the discovery phase of the review has identified the importance of prevention, retention, early intervention and rapid rehabilitation in the workplace."
