NICE
The National Institute for Health and
Clinical Excellence (NICE) is the
independent organisation in the UK
responsible for providing national
guidance to the NHS and the wider
public health community on the
promotion of good health and the
prevention and treatment of ill health.
Has had a public health role since
2005.

Methodological principles governing all NICE’s work
• Base recommendations on the best available evidence.
• To determine cost effectiveness using the QALY.
• To be clear about scientific and other values
• To allow contestability.
• To be seen to be and to be independent of government, the pharmaceutical industry and other vested interests.

Workplace physical activity
• Focuses on activities either based in the workplace or outside the workplace but initiated or endorsed by employers.
• Small, medium and large organisations• Public, private and voluntary sector organisations• Benefits to employers:
• - Better staff retention
• - Increased staff loyalty
• - Reduced sickness absence
![Page 14: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Recommendations
–Policy and planning
–Physical activity programme
–Supporting employers
![Page 15: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Develop a physical activity plan or policy that:
– maximises the opportunity for all employees to participate
– involves staff in planning and development– has dedicated resources– sets organisational goals – links to relevant national and local policies
Policy and planning
![Page 16: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• The programme could include:– flexible working policies– policies to encourage walking, cycling or the use
of other transport involving physical activity– dissemination of information, for example, on
local opportunities to be physically active– ongoing advice and support– confidential, independent health checks
The physical activity programme (1)
![Page 17: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The programme should:– encourage employees to walk, cycle or use
other forms of transport involving physical activity to travel to and from work
– help employees to be physically active during their working day
– Encourage employees to set physical activity goals
– take account of the nature of the work and any health and safety issues
The physical activity programme (2)
![Page 18: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Supporting employers
• Organisations with responsibility for increasing physical activity or for occupational health should provide support to employers who are implementing this guidance. This should ideally be in the workplace and include:
–advice and other information on local resources
–resources, for example, the services of physical activity experts
• If initial demand exceeds resources a targeted approach is suggested.
![Page 19: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

quitlines
![Page 24: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
What should employers do?
• Make information on local stop smoking support widely available
• Offer to help employees who smoke to quit. Be responsive to individual needs and preferences
• Where possible, provide on-site stop smoking support
• Work with staff and their representatives to develop a smoking cessation policy
![Page 25: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
What can employees do?
• Contact local stop smoking services for information, advice and support
• Encourage employers to provide advice, guidance and support to help employees who want to stop smoking
![Page 26: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
The business case
• 72% of smokers want to quit• A non-smoking working environment
encourages people to quit• Loss of productivity of 33 hours per
year per smoker• Use the NICE business case and
other costing tools to help identify costs and savings
![Page 27: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Long term sickness absence
![Page 28: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Background
• Being in employment, either paid or unpaid, can be good for people’s health and wellbeing
• In 2006, an estimated 175 million working days were lost due to sickness absence in Britain
• Sickness absence and ‘worklessness’ in Britain are estimated to cost over £100 billion a year
• About 2.7 million people receive incapacity benefit
![Page 29: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Scope of guidance
• Help employees return to work following long-term sickness absence
• Reduce the re-occurrence of short- and long-term sickness absence
• Prevent or reduce the number of employees moving from short- to long-term sickness absence
• Help those on incapacity benefit to return to paid or unpaid full- or part-time employment
![Page 30: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Pre-requisites and considerations
– Employer and employee should jointly agree any plans to help the employee return to work
– The employee should have someone they trust to liaise with at every stage
– The person liaising with them should be a good communicator and aware of discrimination law and relevant health and safety practices
![Page 31: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Recommendations
• Three recommendations are relevant to employers and relate to long-term (or recurring bouts of long- or short-term) sickness absence
• Recommendation four is relevant to commissioners of services for unemployed people in receipt of incapacity or similar benefits
![Page 32: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Initial enquiries• Employers should identify someone who is impartial to
undertake initial enquiries with the employee, to:
o identify reasons for sickness and barriers to returning to work
o discuss the options for returning to work and jointly agree what action, if any, needs to be taken
• If necessary, employers should appoint a case worker/s
![Page 33: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Detailed assessment
• Only if needed, arrange for a relevant specialist/s to carry out a detailed assessment. This could include:
o specialist advice on diagnosis and treatment
o use of a screening tool
o a combined interview and work assessment
o development of a return-to-work plan, including if needed, interventions or services
![Page 34: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Interventions (if needed)
• Ensure the employee is consulted and jointly agrees to all planned interventions, services and the return-to-work plan
• Coordinate and support delivery of planned interventions and services
![Page 35: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Level of interventions (if needed)
• In addition to usual treatment and care consider:• ‘light’ interventions for those who are likely to return to
work
• An ‘intensive’ programme of interventions for those who are unlikely to return to work
![Page 36: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Incapacity for work
• Commissioners of services for unemployed people in receipt of incapacity or similar benefit, such as the Department for Work and Pensions to:
– commission an integrated programme to help claimants return to work (paid or unpaid)
– evaluate the programme (including any specific components).
![Page 37: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Cost savings
• This guidance is likely to lead to cost savings for employers by reducing the annual number of sick days taken
• The business case template produced to support this guidance helps organisations to estimate the local cost impact
![Page 38: NICE Work - the NICE guidelines for the workplace Trent Occupational Medicine Symposium, Nottingham, 6 th October 2011. Professor Mike Kelly, PhD, FFPH,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e8f5503460f94b932cc/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
