answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/12/2016 answer text <p>The Department provides a pan-disability service and has therefore not issued any specific guidance to employers in respect of multiple sclerosis.</p><p> </p><p>Disability Confident provides guidance to employers to enable them to recruit and support disabled people and those with long term health conditions in work, including people with physical impairments as a result of conditions such as multiple sclerosis. In addition, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) provides guidance to employers on how they can support their disabled employees to stay in work.</p><p> </p><p>We recognise that supportive absence management processes are key to helping people stay in work or return to work after a period of sickness absence. Fit Notes and Statutory Sick Pay are there to support employees to remain in work or return to work. In the recently published ‘Improving Lives – the Work, Health and Disability Green Paper’, we are consulting on proposals to reform the Statutory Sick Pay and Fit Note systems so that they better encourage supportive conversations and phased returns to work.</p> answering member constituency Portsmouth North answering member printed Penny Mordaunt question first answered 08/12/2016 17:56:59 answering member 4017 label Biography information for Penny Mordaunt

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/12/2016 answer text <p>Our measure of disability employment by condition type is based on data from the Labour Force Survey. Whilst this survey has a large sample size, it does not collect enough data on every specific condition to provide robust estimates on the number of working age adults who have multiple sclerosis on its own. Latest available figures report that in Q2 2016 around 146,000 of the disabled working age adults who have progressive illnesses that include multiple sclerosis (but also cancer, symptomatic HIV, Parkinson’s disease and muscular dystrophy) are in employment.</p> answering member constituency Portsmouth North answering member printed Penny Mordaunt question first answered 08/12/2016 12:01:09 answering member 4017 label Biography information for Penny Mordaunt
