Call for evidence: Fit Note Reform

This call for evidence will inform a programme of work announced 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. Evidence is being gathered 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.

You can respond on behalf of an organisation or as an individual. The easiest way to participate in this call for evidence is by completing this online form.  

This call for evidence is part of a wider suite of activity to reform the fit note and will act as a prelude to a full consultation on specific policy proposals which will be launched later this year.
