Check out our recommendations for helping 500k more people into work over 10 years in @financialtimes.com.
💡 These include introducing a benefit passport to allow people to return to their previous benefit status if they leave work within six months and extending Work Allowances to 16 hours a week.

Their report, 'Action for Healthier Working Lives', says people with health conditions are too often forced to leave work because of an unfit workplace and benefits system.
Bold recommendations include raising Statutory Sick Pay rates and a new ‘vocational rehabilitation benefit’.
