Wellbeing | 2 in 5 young workers say declining health could push them out of work

A new survey conducted by the Work Foundation at Lancaster University reveals one in 17 (6%) UK workers believe they may leave their job in the next 12 months due to their health, either to pursue a job that better accommodates their health condition or to leave work entirely due to health reasons.

Researchers warn this suggests over a million people may be contemplating leaving their current job on health grounds.
