Fit Note Reform: call for evidence

Health Workers completing a form

A call for evidence to explore reforming the fit note process to support those with long term health conditions to access timely work and health support.

This call for evidence will inform a programme of work announced by the UK Government at the autumn statement in 2023, to explore reforming the fit note process to support those with long term health conditions to access timely work and health support. The call for evidence is to assess the impact of the current fit note process in supporting work and health conversations and exploring the enhancements stakeholders would require for the fit note to better support people to start, stay and succeed in work.

All views are welcome, particularly from:

  • employers
  • healthcare professionals
  • patients, carers and those who access fit notes
  • representatives of local systems or local system partners (for example, local authority, integrated care board and voluntary community social enterprise)
  • interested academics and stakeholder organisations 

You can respond on behalf of an organisation or as an individual.

This call for evidence closes at 11:59pm on 8 July 2024.
