The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has released its annual statistics on work-related ill health and workplace injuries for 2024/25, offering a clear snapshot of the challenges facing workers across the country. The figures show that an estimated 1.9 million people experienced work-related ill health during the past year—a number that has remained broadly consistent but still reflects the ongoing pressures within modern workplaces.
