Managing Absence eLearning Course

Overview

Occasionally, events beyond our control force us to spend chunks of our working lives at home, or away from the workplace. For businesses, absenteeism is an unavoidable reality. Short-term and long-term illnesses, including mental health conditions, are often the primary reasons.

While there’s a financial cost to absences, they can also affect the productivity and morale of other staff members. But the good news is that a solid absence-management process can support the health and well-being of all employees.

Outline Learning Objectives:

• Identify potential absence concerns in the workplace
• Maintain a fair and professional attitude when managing absence
• Follow effective methods when dealing with all forms of absenteeism

Why take this course?

While most cases are genuine, a robust procedure can help to avoid unauthorised absence, sometimes known as AWOL, or sick pay abuse.

Whether you’re an employer or HR professional, this course will show you the significance of managing absence and provide valuable guidance on how you can handle it in your organisation.
