Simon Report

The Simon Report, officially titled the "Report of the Committee on the Health of the Working Population" (published in 1971), was a significant UK document that focused on the health issues affecting workers. It highlighted the need for improved health services, better workplace safety, and policies to promote workers' wellbeing. The report emphasized that poor health could lead to lower productivity and higher costs for both employers and the government. It influenced health policy and workplace practices in the UK, advocating for a more proactive approach to occupational health and the integration of health services into workplace settings.
