The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) have commissioned a non-statutory independent review titled ‘Keep Britain Working’ to address the increasing economic inactivity linked to ill health and disability in the UK. Led by Sir Charlie Mayfield, the review will examine the roles of employers and government in creating and maintaining healthy and inclusive workplaces, with a focus on increasing the recruitment, retention, and return to work of disabled people and those with long-term health conditions. The review will consist of two phases: a discovery phase concluding in Spring 2025, followed by a recommendations phase set to report in Autumn 2025.
