Fit for Work Service (FFWS) Programme of Piloting

06 July 2010

In February 2010 the first Fit for Work Service (FFWS) Programme Learning Network Conference, in preparation for the programme going live in April 2010. Delegates from the 11 sites attended, as well as FFWS policy leads from the Department for Work and Pensions and the Department of Health. In addressing the conference, Dame Carol Black, set out the principles and the thinking behind the Fit For Work Service Programme.

Elements of the Conference and Dame Carol's address are captured in the video clips on the FFWS website. These are a useful resource for service providers developing or considering launching FFWS.

The first learning event on the FFWS Programme of Piloting have also now been posted on the FFWS webpage:http://www.workingforhealth.gov.uk/Initiatives/fit-for-work-service/Default.aspx
