Returning to work is a milestone for someone recovering from breast cancer. It improves their quality of life, self-esteem and finances. Yet 40 per cent of survivors fail to return to work two years after treatment. 

NDS Superannuation partner HESTA and insurer AIA Australia invites HR managers and leaders for NDS member organisations to a webinar on how to support employees returning to work after breast cancer. The free webinar is on Wednesday 19 July.  
 
Simonie Fox, AIA’s Head of Shared Value Partnerships, who has a background in nursing and rehabilitation, and Joanne Lewis, occupational therapist specialising in workplace rehabilitation, will unpack the breast cancer experience. They will show how organisations can support their workers while they are on leave, undergoing treatment, and preparing to return to work. They will also go through AIA Australia's support programs, which have been designed to improve workers health and ease their way back to work.
