The Most Common Workforce Health Risk UK Employers Aren’t Addressing – Why Access Is Breaking Down, and What Leading Organisations Are Doing About It
Tuesday, 12th May 2026
11:00am - 12:00pm BST

Access to healthcare in the UK is becoming increasingly constrained, and it’s no longer just a system issue. It’s a workforce risk.

Employees are waiting longer, delaying care, and progressing from manageable issues into more serious conditions that drive absence, reduce productivity, and increase operational pressure. As access breaks down across multiple areas of healthcare, employers are being left exposed to a growing and often unmanaged risk within their workforce.

Many existing benefit strategies were designed to support the cost of treatment, not the ability to access care in the first place. As a result, gaps are emerging, particularly in high-frequency areas such as dental, where issues can escalate quickly if left unaddressed.

In this session, we’ll explore how leading organisations are responding by shifting towards more access-led support models, helping to stabilise workforce health, reduce disruption, and intervene earlier.

In this webinar, we’ll cover:

  • Why the UK’s healthcare access challenges are now translating directly into workforce risk for employers

  • How delays in accessing care, particularly in high-frequency areas like dental, lead to absence, productivity loss, and escalating treatment needs

  • Where traditional approaches to employee health support are falling short in an access-constrained environment

  • What are leading organisations doing differently to improve access, intervene earlier, and protect workforce performance

Partnered with Toothfairy

This webinar is hosted in partnership with Toothfairy, a UK-based digital dental service that provides employees with access to regulated dental clinicians through a digital platform on demand.

Through the Toothfairy service, employees can obtain dental advice, virtual examinations, prescriptions, and guidance from qualified clinicians without needing to attend a physical dental appointment. The service is designed as a standalone dental benefit, or to complement existing NHS, private, or insurance-based care.

Employers provide Toothfairy as part of their health and wellbeing provision to give employees a convenient way to access dental support and clinical guidance when they need it.
