Lancashire businesses can access subsidised occupational health support as part of a Government trial initiative designed to stop employees leaving the workplace and to ease the process of people returning to work.

The scheme is being piloted in Lancashire by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC).

It is designed to help Lancashire employers tackle absenteeism and reduced productivity.

It offers an 80 per cent discount on workplace health assessments, while also providing employers with expert insight on employees’ health needs so they can reduce absenteeism.

Employees can also receive advice and support through the scheme to help them return more quickly to the workplace and perform at their best.

Business can check their eligibility and register to take part in the trail via the link here: https://forms.office.com/e/VvggJEiWt9
