Employee absence is a significant cost for many companies, yet research suggests that only a third of employers monitor that cost. Employees need to take time off for various reasons, from short-term sickness to longer-term health issues.
By effectively using absence management you can seek to support the needs of employees while providing professional and structured guidance to avoid unauthorised absence or improper use of sick pay program.
This course takes an approach on how businesses can measure absence, what companies should include in their absence policies, and practical advice on how to manage short- and long-term absence. In addition, it also outlines the legal position when addressing unacceptable absence.
Once you have successfully completed this course, you will be able to demonstrate your understanding of Absence Management and analyse your systems to seek out behaviour or patterns of employees within your company.
