Our Answer Cancer Project Coordinator, Jacqui Naraynsingh, has written a blog post for the Greater Manchester Good Employment Charter, to discuss the importance of workplace support for cancer screening.
It highlights that over 900,000 people in the UK workforce are living with cancer, with 28% reporting minimal or no support from their employers.
The Bee Seen, Get Screened campaign encourages employers to pledge support by guaranteeing paid time off or flexible working for NHS cancer screening appointments, raising awareness about health and wellbeing, and fostering open conversations about cancer and screening. Over 145 businesses in Greater Manchester have already signed up, benefiting nearly 150,000 employees.
