The UK MS Society has worked with other organisations to create Worklife, a website for people with long-term health conditions who want to stay in work, for their employers and for health professionals.
Dr Dhia Chandraratna, Head of International Research at MSIF, says, "Worklife should prove a useful resource for people with MS, their employers, and for MS societies and health professionals.
"While the information on rights, benefits, and the law are specific to the UK, much of the information is relevant to anyone dealing with a fluctuating chronic health condition, wherever they live."
The website officially launches on 7 July 2010. It is a culmination of work between The UK Department for Work and Pensions, The Employers Forum on Disability, EDF Energy, The Trades Union Congress, The Royal College of Occupational Therapists, The Royal College of Physiotherapists, The Royal College of General Practitioners, UCL Institute of Neurology at Queens Square, The UK MS Society, Arthritis Care, Terrence Higgins Trust, Macmillan, Parkinson’s UK and Diabetes UK.
