Update 2 March 2023: Following the merger of NHS Digital and NHS England on 1st February 2023 we are reviewing the future presentation of the NHS Outcomes Framework indicators. As part of this review, the annual publication which was due to be released in March 2023 has been delayed. Further announcements about this dataset will be made on this page in due course.
The percentage point difference between the rate of employment in the general population of working age (16-64) and the rate of employment amongst adults of working age with a mental illness.
This indicator measures the extent to which people with mental illness are able to live as normal a life as possible by looking at their levels of employment. This indicator is to ensure that mental illness is not excluded due to an overriding focus on physical health.
