Report Link How Employers Can Live With Cancer in the Workplace.Elarbee, Thompson, Sapp & Wilson, LLP. - April 17, 2006 According to the American Cancer Society, about 1.4 million new cases of cancer are diagnosed each year. The National Cancer Institute estimates that approximately 9.6 million Americans with a history of cancer were alive in January 2000. Despite these depressing statistics, the rate of cancer survivorship for a period of five years after diagnosis has increased from 50% to 64% in the last twenty years. Because about 40% of those diagnosed with cancer are of working-age, this means employers are dealing in increasing numbers with cancer in the workplace.
