How were
these pages developed?
This section of the website was developed with
the help of a steering group of experts, including psychiatrists
and other health professionals, service users, and their carers, as
well as people who work with employer organisations, including
small businesses to large national companies. It has been

Carer’s Forums, people working in or with employer organisations,
as well as experts in occupational health.
The resources have been chosen because of their usefulness and
accessibility, rather than as a result of systematic
review.
