Cancer survival is improving, but return‑to‑work support is falling behind

What happened

Australia has made significant strides in improving cancer survival, but new research from Griffith University finds far less progress in supporting survivors' return to work, which remains a major challenge for many. The industry research report, "Return-to-Work for Cancer Survivors in the Life Insurance Context," was a joint research collaboration between Griffith University and Hannover Life Re of Australasia Ltd. and was published in the Griffith Research Repository.
