Sickness Absence Management

KEYS TO SUCCESS
Early intervention - it is well documented that the longer an employee is off sick the less likely they are to return to work. There is growing evidence that 6 weeks represents a watershed beyond which an employee’s mental and physical health begins to deteriorate significantly.
Professional support - by using occupational health specialists you are able to remove the health assessment burden from HR and line managers.
Workplace adjustments - reasonable adjustments to the working environment will reduce the risk of similar ill health recurring.
Graded return to work plan - allows the employee to make the transition back to work at a manageable pace.
