There are currently more than five million people in the UK are living with diabetes – which is an all-time high. Accounting for 10% of the NHS’s entire budget each year, diabetes is becoming one of the fastest growing epidemics of the 21st century.
For diabetics in the workplace, 1 in 4 said they had to take more than 3 days off in the past year, mostly due to appointments ( also but exhaustion). Many employees worry about doing this, and for good reason; 1 in 5 had faced disciplinary action for missing work. (Source). There is clearly work to do to raise awareness and understanding of diabetes in the workplace.
