Great to see @JohannaBaxter pressing the Minister on Statutory Sick Pay reform on the first day back after recess! We need to increase Statutory Sick Pay to stop workers falling into poverty.
Revealing to hear members of Govt's disability confident employer scheme are no more likely to hire disabled people than those not in the scheme A lesson for the Government on sick pay here- weaker action undermines the chance of greater positive impact on workforce health.

Great to join and listen to @resfoundation's event with Sir Charlie Mayfield this morning. Supporting #disabled people into work has to mean an adequate financial safety net when they do need time off. Part of that means better #statutorysickpay
Excellent analysis from @wpi_economics on one of the Employment Rights Bill's two #sickpay reforms, day one sick pay. Improved productivity, retention and morale all add up to a £2bn net business benefit.

When employers trust their employees and provide sick pay from day one, their businesses benefit too. If you're too ill to work, you shouldn't. Simple as that.
Brilliant to have @alexsobel as a public supporter of the #SafeSickPay campaign. At £3 an hour, Statutory Sick Pay is so low that many are forced to return to work whilst ill or injured - jeopardising both their physical and mental health. It's time this changed.
It was great to see @JohannaBaxter raising the rate of Statutory Sick Pay with Alison McGovern MP, Minister for Employment in Parliament last week. "As a Department we are looking at it very closely and I'm sure Parliament will discuss the issue ... over the years to come"
MS is a challenging condition to work with and requires a delicate balancing act for many thousands of people. Well done, @mssocietyuk and @WorkFoundation, for putting this excellent study together - it's great to work with you as fellow advocates for improved #SickPay
