Some numbers. . • The cost of working days lost and worklessness is over 100 billion to the economy with 140 -150 million working days lost each year • The CIPD survey reports that the average cost of absence is £ 692 per employee a year. • 27. 3 million people are in employment in the UK with 74% healthy, 26% with a health condition or disability and 650, 00 off sick at any one time. Total cost of mental ill health at work to UK employers estimated at 26 billion per year (Centre for Mental Health) Prevention and early identification of mental health problems could save employers 8 billion per year (NICE 2009) Estimates suggest inactivity costs the NHS across the UK £ 1. 06 billion It is likely that by 2025 40% of adults will be obese and the number of people working with chronic conditions will rise steadily affecting morale, competitiveness and profitability

Work and health Research shows that good work is good for health and that better employee health is good for business. “Our conclusion from the evidence available … is that the correlation between engagement, wellbeing and performance is repeated too often for it to be a coincidence” (Macleod & Clarke)[1]. [1] Engaging for Success: enhancing performance through employee engagement. A report to Government by David Macleod and Nita Clarke

Improving OH provision to employers: Standards and Accreditation 1. Enable services to identify the standards of practice to which they should aspire; 2. Credit good work being done by high quality occupational health services, providing independent validation that they satisfy standards of quality 3. Raise standards where they need to be raised 4. Help purchasers differentiate occupational health services that attain the desired standards from those that do not. Standards were published in January 2010 and the accreditation scheme was launched in 2011. www. seqohs. org Produced by Faculty of Occupational Medicine
