Department for Science, Innovation and Technology: Mental Health
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, how many staff in their Department have been on mental health leave for six months or more; and for what reason.
Answered by Ian Murray
The Department for Science, Innovation and Technology routinely reports its sickness absence data on gov.uk alongside the rest of the Civil Service.
Information can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/sickness-absence
This contains statistics for sickness absence by organisation and sickness reason, including Mental Ill-Health.
