As the UK’s Sector Skills Council for Health, we are committed to the development of an improved and sustainable workforce across the UK, and passionate about supporting individuals and teams to deliver exceptional care for the public. The findings will support employers to continually  dedicate much-needed resource to improving the workplace, for their people. This year’s survey focuses on the following themes:

Covid-19

Flexible working

Skills & Training

Changing workforce

Organisational Development

Equality, diversity and inclusion

For over 10 years’ our research has helped shape the delivery of workforce initiatives and people strategies, supporting employers to make evidence-based decisions and to target effective resources in their efforts to improve the workplace. This year’s review focuses on improving resilience and wellbeing, particularly in light of the immense trials we have all experienced in the last 12 months, and will help employers to better understand the complex skills issues that they will need to address, in order to equip their workforce to meet future challenges.
