Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether their workforce plan, due to be published in the spring, will cover resourcing of occupational health.

The Government is committed to publishing a 10 Year Workforce Plan to set out action to create a workforce ready to deliver the transformed service set out in the 10-Year Health Plan. The 10 Year Workforce Plan will ensure the National Health Service has the right people in the right places, with the right skills to care for patients, when they need it. We are working through how the plan will articulate the changes for different professional groups.
