Bydd yr arian ychwanegol yn cael ei roi i'r Gwasanaeth Cymorth mewn Gwaith sy'n anelu at roi mynediad di\-dâl cyflym i bobl sydd â chyflyrau iechyd meddwl neu gorfforol at therapi galwedigaethol er mwyn helpu iddynt aros mewn gwaith. Bydd y cyllid yn galluogi'r rhaglen bresennol \- sy'n cael ei darparu gan Fwrdd Iechyd Prifysgol Abertawe Bro Morgannwg yn Ne Cymru ac RCS yng Ngogledd Cymru \-i gael ei hymestyn tan Ragfyr 2022\.   
  
Mae'r Gwasanaeth Cymorth mewn Gwaith yn llenwi bwlch yn y farchnad a sylwyd arno gan sefydliadau partner gan gynnwys Pwyllgor Ymarferwyr Cyffredinol Cymru a'r Ffederasiwn Busnesau Bach, ac sy'n darparu ymyraethau therapiwtig cyflym sy'n helpu gweithwyr sydd ar absenoldeb salwch hirdymor neu mewn perygl o fod.    
  
Gan gefnogi pobl sydd â phroblemau iechyd i aros mewn gwaith a helpu gweithwyr BBaChau i reoli effaith absenoldeb salwch ar fusnesau, mae'r rhaglen yn cyd\-fynd â chynllun Llewyrch i Bawb Llywodraeth Cymru yn ogystal â'i Chynllun Gweithredu Economaidd, y Cynllun Cyflogadwyedd a'i strategaeth Iechyd \- Cymru Iachach.   
  
Cyhoeddodd Ysgrifennydd yr Economi y cyllid ychwanegol mewn digwyddiad dathlu ar gyfer RCS, sefydliad di\-elw sy'n anelu at helpu pobl i gyflawni eu potensial drwy eu gwaith. Meddai: 


> "Amcangyfrifir bod y gost i'r economi yng Nghymru o salwch sy'n gysylltiedig â gwaith yn £500 miliwn y flwyddyn ac fe wyddom fod cyflogwyr BBaChau a'u gweithwyr yn dioddef yn llawer gwaeth o ganlyniad i absenoldeb salwch yn y gwaith. Dyma un o'r rhesymau pam fod ein Contract Economaidd newydd yn annog busnesau i hyrwyddo iechyd da yn y gweithle.
> 
> "I gefnogi'r uchelgais hwn ymhellach, dwi'n falch o gyhoeddi £9\.4 miliwn yn ychwanegol ar gyfer y Rhaglen Cymorth mewn Gwaith. Dwi'n gobeithio y bydd yn helpu i atal pobl sydd â chyflyrau iechyd cyffredin rhag colli gwaith, a bydd hefyd yn annog busnesau i greu lleoedd gweithio iachach."

Bydd y cyllid ychwanegol, sy'n cynnwys £7\.2 miliwn o gyllid yr UE a £2\.2 miliwn o gyllid Llywodraeth Cymru, yn ehangu y gwasanaeth i gefnogi hyd at 12,000 o bobl ac oddeutu 2\.500 o fusnesau yn sylweddol er mwyn creu gweithle iach.  Bydd y gwasanaeth yn cael ei hehangu i gynnwys mwy o weithwyr mewn ardaloedd gwledig, a bydd yn cynyddu'r cysylltiad gyda rhwydweithiau busnesau llai a gwasanaethau iechyd lleol.  
  
Meddai yr Ysgrifennydd Iechyd, Vaughan Gething:


> "Mae'r prosiect hwn yn cyfuno gweithwyr iechyd proffesiynol, cymorth sgiliau a busnes yn un gwasanaeth sy'n helpu pobl i aros mewn gwaith drwy ymyraethau uniongyrchol sy'n canolbwyntio ar y gweithle.  
> 
> Mae'n dangos y posibiliadau pwerus o weithio'n effeithiol ar draws llywodraeth i gynnig gweithredu positif ar gyfer pobl fregus mewn dull syml ac effeithiol."

Meddai Cyfarwyddwr Gweithredol RCS, Alison Thomas:


> "Mae'r Gwasanaeth Cymorth mewn Gwaith yn rhoi cymorth hollbwysig sy'n helpu i gadw gweithwyr mewn gwaith wrth iddynt wynebu heriau i'w hiechyd, gan ddod â manteision enfawr i bobl cyflogedig a hunan\-gyflogedig ac i'r gymuned fusnes yng ngogledd Cymru yn gyffredinol.  
> 
> Rydyn ni'n falch iawn o'r newyddion fod y gwasanaeth yn cael ei ymestyn hyd at Ragfyr 2022, fydd yn rhoi'r cyfle inni barhau â'n gwaith o gefnogi gweithwyr a pherchnogion busnes i greu gweithleoedd iach, positif a chynhyrchiol."

The additional money will be directed to the In Work Support Service which aims to give people with mental or physical health conditions free and rapid access to occupational therapy in order to help them remain in employment. The injection of funding will enable the existing programme \- which is delivered by Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University Health Board (ABMU) in South Wales and RCS in North Wales \- to be extended until December 2022\.  

  

The In Work Support Service fills a gap in the market that was identified by partner organisations including General Practitioner Committee Wales and the Federation of Small Businesses, and provides rapid therapeutic interventions which help employees on or at risk of long\-term sickness absence.    

  

In supporting people with health problems to stay in work and in helping SME employers to manage the business impact of sickness absence, the programme aligns with the Welsh Government’s Prosperity for All plan as well as its Economic Action Plan, Employability Plan and its Health strategy \- A Healthier Wales.  

  

The Economy Secretary announced the additional funding at a celebration event for Rhyl City Strategy (RCS), a not\-for\-profit organisation that aims to help people fulfil their potential through work. He said:



> “The cost to the Welsh economy of work\-related ill health is estimated at £500m per annum and we know that SME employers and their employees are disproportionately affected by sick absence at work. That is one of the reasons why our new Economic Contract encourages businesses to promote good health in the workplace.
> 
> 
> “To further support this ambition I am pleased to announce an additional £9\.4m for the In Work Support Programme. I hope this will help to prevent people with common health conditions from falling out of work, and  will also encourage businesses to build healthier work places.”


The additional funding, which is made of £7\.2m of EU funding and £2\.2m of Welsh Government funding, will significantly expand the service to support up to 12,000 people and some 2,500 businesses to build a healthy workplace. The service will be widened to encompass more employees in rural areas and will look to increase engagement with small business networks and local health services.  

  

Health Secretary Vaughan Gething said:



> “This project brings together health professionals, skills and business support into a single service that helps people to remain in employment through direct workplace focused interventions.  
> 
> 
> It demonstrates the powerful potential of effective cross\-government working to deliver positive action for vulnerable people in a joined\-up and efficient way.”


RCS’s Operational Director, Alison Thomas, said:



> “The In Work Support Service provides vital support to help keep employees in work in the face of individual health challenges, bringing enormous benefits both for employed and self\-employed people and for the North Wales business community as a whole.  
> 
> 
> We are delighted at the news of the service extension to December 2022, which will allow us to continue our work in supporting employees and business owners to create healthy, positive and productive workplaces.”


Paul Dunning, Professional Head of Staff Health and Wellbeing at ABMU Health Board said:



> “ABMU welcome the continued funding of the service which will enable the team to support the physical and mental health of the working population and support Welsh Government’s aspirations to look after the wellbeing of employees within the workplace.”
