  • Total Sickness Benefit Data – Figures 1-9 Updated from Glasgow Profile
    Scottish Observatory for Work and Health University of Glasgow Health-related Worklessness in Scotland Profile June 2011 Judith Brown Joel Smith David Webster James Arnott Ivan Turok Ewan Macdonald Richard Mitchell Contact: Judith Brown Public Health & Health Policy 1 Lilybank Gardens University of Glasgow Glasgow G12 8RZ [email protected] 1 Summary & Key Findings Health-related worklessness in Scotland Profile 1. This profile provides detailed information on total sickness-related benefit claimants (incapacity benefit, IB and Employment Support Allowance, ESA claimants) from 2000 to 2009, ESA claimants from 2009 and ESA claimants by medical condition for 2010 (broken down by age, duration of claim, stage of claim and ethnicity). 2. The profile contains data for Scotland, Glasgow City, North Lanarkshire, South Lanarkshire, East Dunbartonshire, East Renfrewshire, Inverclyde, Renfrewshire, West Dunbartonshire. 3. The percent of the working age population (WAP) claiming IB in Glasgow City decreased from 18.8% in 2000 to 14.4% by 2007. Following the introduction of ESA in October 2008, the WAP in receipt of total sickness-related benefit has continued to follow the general linear decline observed for IB but the rate is not falling as steeply. By 2009, 13.5% of the WAP in Glasgow were claiming sickness benefit compared to 9.1% in Scotland. Similar trends are observed in the other geographies. 4. The rate of on flow decreased in Scotland and Glasgow City prior to the introduction of ESA. From 2008 there have been small increases in IB/ESA on flow rates. By 2009, total sickness benefit was in excess of the level observed for 2005 with the rate of on flow currently at 3.9% in Glasgow.

  • The State of South Lanarkshire's Environment
    Community and Enterprise Resources The State of South Lanarkshire’s Environment 2017 Summary The quality of the environment in which we live is important for our health and wellbeing. South Lanarkshire has a very rich and diverse environment which gives the area its unique character. Such an environment requires careful management in order to maintain and improve the area. This is the fifth comprehensive biennial State of the Environment Report for South Lanarkshire. The aim of the report is to provide quality data that facilitates evaluation of a range of environmental issues, identifies trends and provides an overall picture of the condition or state of South Lanarkshire’s environment. The state of the environment across South Lanarkshire is in many aspects relatively good. However, there are certain environmental issues where there is potential for improvement. These include those that can affect human health and the natural and built environment. The health of South Lanarkshire’s people is relatively poor and below the Scottish average for several key indicators. This is particularly evident within communities identified as economically, socially and environmentally deprived. However, the difference between South Lanarkshire and the national average continues to narrow. There is well documented evidence that environmental deprivation is related to health and health behaviour. Access to good quality greenspace and the wider countryside are important in promoting healthy lifestyles. The provision of greenspace and access to the core path network varies considerably across South Lanarkshire but is generally improving. Air quality within South Lanarkshire is considered relatively good, however, there are specific ‘hotspot’ areas closely associated with heavily congested roads where levels are poor.
