Business, Innovation and Skills written question – answered at on 14 January 2013.
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills pursuant to the answer of 12 December 2012, Official Report, column 401W, on sick leave, if he will make an assessment of the contribution mindfulness-based practice can make to reducing workplace stress and staff absences in his Department.
I refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave on
BIS is not able to make such an assessment. BIS refers employees with health issues to an independent medical adviser (MA) who is an occupational health expert for advice on how best to support and facilitate their return to work. The actions and support available are relative to the individual circumstances of the case.
