2 Improving Health Through Work The Government instigated review Working for a Healthier Tomorrow - Dame Carol Black, 2006 Around 1.96 million people are workless and receiving benefits because of long term health conditions or disabilities Families without a working member are more likely to suffer persistent low income and poverty Persistent low parental income is not only associated with children living in poverty but also with poorer health outcomes The link between health and wealth can run in both directions. Having a higher income is likely to improve a person s health status whilst being in good health increases a person s earning potential. When a parent or carer is unable to work due to ill health or disability the household s income usually declines. Around a quarter of children in poverty live in a household with a disabled adult and the risk of poverty for this group is 31% 2
3 Is Work Good For Your Health and Wellbeing? (Waddell & Burton, 2006) Unemployment is generally found to be harmful to health including; Higher Mortality Poorer general health and long standing illness Poorer mental health and psychological distress Higher medical consultation and hospital rates When health permits, sick/ disabled people should stay in or aim for work because; It can be therapeutic Helps promote recovery and rehab Leads to better health outcomes Reduces the risk of long term incapacity Reduces poverty Improves quality of life and wellbeing 3
4 Is Work Good For Your Health and Wellbeing? Understanding and addressing common health problems requires a bio-psycho-social approach. This takes account of the person, their health problem and their work environment. One study focused on the views of GP s working with those on sick leave. It was found that work could be of therapeutic benefit to patients due to the contribution to self esteem and self respect. Being off work was thought to impact negatively on mental health, partly explained through lack of interaction and routine. Also thought that having too much time on their hands lead people to dwell on things, becoming more anxious and depressed (Mowlam and Lewis, 2005) Concluded that Work IS generally good for health and wellbeing 4
