Who we are:
We are an experienced multi-disciplinary team with over 200 years’ combined experience in persistent pain and fatigue management. Within this team Amanda, our Career & Employment Consultant brings her expertise from more than 20 years working in the Career industry.
Our expertise:
We help people with persistent, pain, fatigue, and post-viral syndromes, including Post Covid-19 Syndrome (Long Covid), to optimise their recovery and manage their symptoms so they can remain in work or return to work, after a period of sickness absence.
We are also an employer of people with long term health conditions.
The scale of the issue:
2.5 million work age people are inactive because of long term sickness. 26 million people in UK with long term conditions.1
Persistent pain: 45% of population with 25% losing their jobs, 41% of those at pain clinics report that pain has prevented them from working.2
Persistent fatigue: 35%-69% not working due to their illness with 45% reporting temporary or permanently interrupted employment.3
Self reported long covid 1.97 million people.4
81% of UK workers do not feel as they they achieve enough sleep5 - which is costing the UK economy £11.5 bn per annum soley in absenteeism and presentesim.6
Potential financial costs of long-term sickness absence example:
Absence costs can be an unexpected expense for a business in terms of the payment of any statutory and company sick pay. With longer term absence, there could be health redundancies costs.
HR Sources estimate that it costs an employer about £50K to recruit someone new.
