Keep Britain Working Review
Created: 12/11/2025More than 60 major and many small employers are joining forces with the UK Government to tackle the rising tide of ill health that is pushing people out of work and holding back growth.
The joint effort, developed in response to Sir Charlie Mayfield’s Keep Britain Working Review will drive action to prevent ill health, support people to stay in work, and help employers build healthier, more resilient workplaces.
In response, the Government will partner with employers to reshape how health issues and disabilities are managed in the workplace with the launch of employer-led Vanguards.
They’re committing to embracing the report’s healthy working lifecycle - which aims to reduce sickness absence, improve return-to-work rates, and increase disability employment rates – which the Government will work towards developing into a voluntary certified standard by 2029.
