Britain is going through the longest sustained rise in the number of working-age adults who are too sick to work since the 1990s.
The Resolution Foundation "warned that a near-record 2.7 million working-age adults were too sick to work, with the biggest increase since the Covid pandemic concentrated among the UK’s youngest and oldest workers"

IT’S NOT OVER
