Dont hold me back
Most of those surveyed say they would go to great lengths to get back to work as soon as possible, rather than let an injury or illness hold them back. In order to get back to their job, 89% would seek the help of specialists to get the right care. Three-quarters say they would make arrangements to work from home or find ways to stay connected at work if faced with an injury or illness.
