The NHS Long Term Plan sets out that NHS England will provide targeted support to trusts to access fast track occupational health services and a line management development programme, building on existing work with 70 organisations. This complements the publication of the NHS Health and Wellbeing Framework in May 2018, which includes recommendations from ‘Thriving at Work: The Stevenson/Farmer review of mental health and employers’.
