HL Deb 17 February 2003 vol 644 cc152-5WA
Lord Graham of Edmonton

asked Her Majesty's Government:

In which location the job retention and rehabilitation pilot will operate. [HL1700]

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department for Work and Pensions (Baroness Holiis of Heigham)

The Department for Work and Pensions together with the Department of Health and appropriate Scottish Executive officials are currently preparing for the implementation of job retention and rehabilitation pilot in April 2003 in Birmingham, Greater Glasgow, Sheffield, Tyneside, Teesside and West Kent.

This research pilot will evaluate the impact of innovative strategies involving health and workplace interventions. The aim is to help employed and self-employed people who have been off work sick for over six weeks return to and remain in work. Pilot service providers will market the pilot throughout local communities including health professionals and employers to raise awareness and encourage people to volunteer. The pilot will operate in the following post code locations:
