NIDMAR: UK Licence holder and trainer

Well Working Matters is the UK Licence holder and provider of the internationally recognised NIDMAR education programme. This programme delivers effective return-to-work and absence-management modules, to organisations and professionals in the absence and disability management field.

The National Institute of Disability Management and Research (NIDMAR) was founded in 1994 and is committed to reducing the human, social and economic costs of disability. As an education, training and research organisation, NIDMAR’s primary focus is the implementation of workplace-based reintegration programmes which international research has proven to be the most effective way of restoring and maintaining workers’ abilities. Whilst reducing the costs of sickness and disability for workers, employers, government and insurance companies, this programme has been customised to reflect both local and international standards of practice and legislation in the UK.
