Sickness absence is far more than just a statistic and with the wholesale employment law reforms being brought in by labour, businesses are feeling the pressure to manage absenteeism even more effectively, which is where HR enters the conversation. We always like to see a positive in any situation and we see this area as an opportunity for HR to shine and influence the financial bottom, at the same time as supporting your employees and maintaining a thriving work environment.
In this session, we will dive into the power of return to work interviews and why collaborating with occupational health can be a game-changer for both employees and the business. You’ll learn how to create a fair and consistent approach to absence management, that not only ensures compliance and stops the habitual Monday / Friday sick day pattern but fosters a culture of care and support. We are not stopping there though —we will explore how employee assistance programs and mental health first aiders can help elevate your employee wellbeing strategy. Plus, we will talk about the increasing importance of flexible working arrangements, which are key to reducing absenteeism and enhancing employee morale.
With the government’s growing focus on employee wellbeing, these practices are no longer just optional - they’re vital for your business to thrive. So are you ready to turn sickness absence into an opportunity for growth and support? Come and join us to explore how you can!
