Work: The Grand Cure: How changing the way Britain works will be good for our health

Health inequalities are an issue of central importance to every government department; you can’t build a strong economy or a healthy society by parking health inequalities as an issue on the fringes of government. By Howard Stoate and Bryan Jones September 2010

Health inequalities are an issue of central importance to every government department; you can’t build a strong economy or a healthy society by parking health inequalities as an issue on the fringes of government.

In ‘Work, the Grand Cure‘ Howard Stoate and Bryan Jones argue that the question of whether the new Government engages in any meaningful way with Sir Michael Marmot’s recommendations on health inequality – and on the health effects of good work in particular – will be a litmus test showing whether the Liberal-Conservatives are really serious about inequality and social justice.
