BACKGROUND
One in two people will receive a cancer diagnosis in their lifetime, most of them are of working age. As this numbers increase, one is bound to meet a colleague, friend, family and business associate diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime, it is vital that businesses are able to support people who are facing cancer. The health of your employees is key, not only to their success, but to the success of your organization as well.
Screening for early detection of cancer can help your employees and business partners thrive and reduce cost for your business caused by sickness absenteeism. The incidence of cancer is increasing rapidly; therefore, it is important to step up cancer literacy and knowledge in the community. This will lead to early detection which is important in the management and treatment of cancer and also prevention by making necessary changes in lifestyle.
Thanks to the advances that have been made in cancer diagnosis and treatment, more people than ever before are surviving cancer and living beyond five years after their diagnosis, with many cancer survivors wanting to return to work. Cancer survivors cite both financial and emotional reasons for going back to work, hoping that a job would restore normality, stability, social contact and income.
For businesses, supporting people to come back to work after a cancer diagnosis improves their capacity to retain experienced employees, reduce sickness-related absence and help sustain a resilient, productive workforce. Advances in cancer treatment can mean longer and better lives for patients. That means the number of people living with and beyond cancer is growing fast. The need for employers to actively support those affected by cancer is pressing. Campaigns such as Cancer in the Workplace, will enable companies to provide a more open, supportive and recovery environment.
