Sunak's Sick Note: Is WFH on the way out?
Listen now
Description
Our analysis of data from Reed Recruitment shows employers are offering fewer flexible and hybrid-working positions, potentially making it harder to bring people back into the job market. Tackling what the government calls 'sick note culture' and reducing the benefits bill is a key priority for the PM. Bloomberg reporter Irina Anghel walks us through the numbers. Political Editor Kitty Donaldson weighs in on the politics of the debate. Hosted by Stephen Carroll and Yuan Potts.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
