In June 2021, the Health and Social Care Select Committee published its report ‘workforce burnout and resilience in the NHS and Social Care’. The report explored several key issues, including: the scale and impact of workforce burnout and its contributing factors; the impact of workplace culture on burnout and the further work needed to create an inclusive and compassionate working environment; the impact that the Covid-19 pandemic has had on the workforce; and how more comprehensive workforce planning is necessary. This response makes several recommendations against these issues.
