This employer hub has been created in response to employer feedback asking for centralised and quality-controlled resources to help employers get started and share best practice when it comes to cancer.
Quality resources to help employers get started and stay proactive on cancer.
There are two ways that Employers can make use of the hub.
Additionally, organisations that employ people living or working in South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw are invited to attend interactive webinars and working groups.
Resources
Great for applying knowledge across your organisation.
Use the four sections for examples and actionable resources you can apply in your organisation to support your workforce throughout the cancer journey.
Prevention > reducing risk factors at work.
Detection & Diagnosis > signs & symptoms and cancer screening.
Workforce Support > what to do when someone is affected by cancer.
Living with Cancer > ongoing support beyond treatment.
AI Assisted Action
Great to help you understand the basic steps to take.
Use the tool, (currently provided as a Beta test through Gemini Notebook) to create action plans specific to your organisation given your unique challenges, workforce make-up, job roles, challenges and opportunities.
You can also use this for advice on preparing for specific situations, however this must not replace occupational health and management skills provided by humans, and you must not share individual identifiable information.
It’s time to talk about Cancer.
Great advances have been made in aspects of health, such as mental health and wellbeing, to encourage conversation, reduce stigma, and help workforces understand how to create a supportive and proactive culture. This initiative is about doing this for cancer.
We are taking a holistic way covering prevention, screening, detection, diagnosis, treatment, workplace returns, through to living and working with cancer as a long-term condition.
The structure for the content is based on the Cancer Patient Journey created by the Cancer Research UK Convergence Science Centre.
The employer hub is intended to be a continuously updated with new ideas and innovations, as well as seeking improvements.
If you spot something you want to challenge, or think could be improved please get in touch providing relevant information and advising us if you are interested in helping us make it better.
