Whether you’re a line manager, team leader or managing a small business, chances are you've worked with many people with migraine (whether you know about it or not).

Migraine is a common, debilitating but manageable condition. It has. It has a significant but addressable, cost on people’s working lives and business performance.

This guide is designed to help you understand what migraine is, why it matters to you and your organisation, and how to help individuals with migraine improve their experience and contribution at work.

Commissioned and funded by Novartis Pharmaceuticals UK Ltd, the guide was independently produced by the Work Foundation, following the publication of their breakthrough research report ‘Society’s Headache’ in 2018. It has been developed with the help of patient groups, health experts and employers representing more than 1.3 million employees in the UK. We are very grateful for their input.
