Resources for employers and employees to reduce workplace absence

Working Health Services Scotland (WHSS) is a free NHSScotland service for employers and employees. WHSS offers referral and advice services for those struggling to attend work due to a health condition and supports workers to safely return to and stay at work.

The service aims to help:

  • employees manage their health condition and remain at work
  • a return to work if a period of sickness absence occurs
  • prevent further periods of sickness

This social media toolkit aims to raise awareness of the WHSS service and increase referrals from eligible businesses and individuals.

The toolkit contains suggested post copy aimed at employers and employees, a post schedule for the Public Health Scotland channels should you prefer to share the posts, and suggested newsletter copy for including in any newsletters that you publish. There is also a plain text version of the copy.
