Dr. Grant Jeffrey:

Healthcare workers have access to the occupational health services for additional support. As mentioned earlier, there is advice about recommendations to help people in the workplace returning to work. They have access to occupational health for that advice and support. With the HSE, they also have access to an employee assistance programme that provides a counselling and support service. Within the occupational health services in the HSE, we also devised a pathway to allow early access into support services for long Covid.

That remains in place. The Deputy alluded to a figure. The figure we have is that approximately 120 whole-time equivalent members of staff were availing of the specialist scheme of pay for long Covid.
