as it does with other awareness days.</p><p>International Men’s Day offers an opportunity
to highlight where we need to do more to improve outcomes for men and boys, as well
as an opportunity to talk about some of the work being done across Government to tackle
those issues.</p><p>This work includes preparation for an Employment Bill which, subject
to further consultation, will make flexible working the default unless employers have
good reason not to; and delivering the Suicide Prevention Workplan, which sets out
action that is being taken across Government departments and the NHS to reduce suicides,
including amongst men.</p><p>The Government is committed to levelling up opportunity
and ensuring fairness for all - regardless of gender or background.</p>
