Beatson Cancer Charity’s Specialist Health and Work Service supports people who are affected by cancer and who may be experiencing difficulties at work, including discrimination by an employer. Most employers show genuine empathy during challenging times and can offer much needed support during a cancer journey, but we can all do more.
Independent research has identified that employers still lack robust knowledge, skills and confidence to help support a colleague affected by cancer.
This page will help give you a better understanding of what more we can do to support employee facing cancer.
With support from the Scottish Government’s Workplace Equality Fund, Impact Funding Partners and NHS GGC, Beatson Cancer Charity has worked with Marks & Spencer, Arnold Clark, Tesco Bank, Ten Live and Fish to Water HR on the “We’re with you at Work” employer toolkit to address cancer in the workplace.
