Manage Sickness Absence and Productivity Through Organisational Change

Is absenteeism adding extra workload, stress and business cost?

Support employees back to work earlier adopt a new preventative approach to absenteeism

"Take part in an initiative fully funded by the government."

“Created for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to address the challenges caused by absentees, the new service supports employers and employees by helping employees return to work earlier whilst simultaneously providing practical advice to employers on what to do to reduce future absenteeism.”

“Unlike other services, we aim to diagnose and tackle the core drivers of sickness absence specific to your particular company through analysing business risk and assessing your workforce’s health and wellbeing. Using a proven approach we will support one of your absentees back into work more quickly.”

“We do this through a group of trained specialised clinical and non clinical professionals who will steer the employer and employee through this concurrent approach to sickness absence management.”
