Follow up

Hi,

Sanfield promised to appoint a special group to follow up on the needs of each family and to issue the workers' pay records within a week for the families to pursue compensation.

What is the difference between "follow up on sth" and "follow up sth"?

Can I remove "on"?

Thanks in advance
