Managing employee absence effectively is critical to maintaining productivity and ensuring fairness across your organisation. At MY HR, we provide expert guidance and tailored support to help you navigate the complexities of absence management with confidence.
Absenteeism can disrupt operations and impact morale, but with the right strategies, it’s possible to minimise its effects. Our approach focuses on prevention, early intervention, and resolution. Whether it’s short-term sick leave, long-term absence, or patterns of unplanned absences, we’ll work with you to implement processes that address issues promptly and sensitively.
Clear and consistent absence policies are the cornerstone of effective management. We’ll help you design and implement policies that align with your organisation’s values and legal obligations. From setting expectations around reporting and certification to ensuring compliance with employment law, we provide practical solutions that work in the real world.
Line managers are often at the forefront of managing absence, yet they can lack the tools or confidence to handle difficult situations. Our bespoke training equips your managers with the skills they need to manage absence consistently and fairly, promoting a culture of trust and accountability within your workforce.
When absences escalate into more complex situations, such as long-term illness or disputes over fitness to work, our experienced consultants are here to support you. We offer advice on reasonable adjustments, phased returns, and maintaining open communication with employees, ensuring both legal compliance and positive outcomes.
Absence management isn’t just about reducing sick days – it’s about fostering a healthier, more engaged workforce. With MY HR, you’ll benefit from:
