The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has published its latest annual statistics on work-related ill health and workplace injuries for 2024/25. According to the report, an estimated 1.9 million workers suffered from work-related ill health during the year. This is broadly in line with recent years, though still higher than pre-pandemic levels recorded in 2018/19. Mental health remains a key concern Mental health conditions are still the primary driver of work-related ill health. In 2024/25, 964,000 workers reported stress, depression, or anxiety caused or worsened by work. This continues an upward trend seen over the past several years. The impact of work-related ill health and injuries is also reflected in lost working time. An estimated 40.1 million working days were lost in 2024/25. Fatal and non-fatal injuries In 2024/25, there were 124 worker fatalities and an estimated 680,000 self-reported non-fatal injuries. HSE Chief Executive Sarah Albon said the statistics “demonstrate that workplace health challenges persist, particularly around mental health.” To review the report in full, see: https://www.hse.gov.uk/statistics/index.htm
