What if you’re short-staffed and now someone calls in sick?

Absenteeism is a challenge for any SME owner, especially when you’re working with a small team. You rely on an occupational health service to handle the process; but what can you do as an employer? How can you spot the early signs and prevent long-term absence?

• Key points around legislation, the absenteeism protocol, and the roles of the absence manager and occupational physician
• Effective interventions such as appointing a confidential counsellor and offering preventive consultations
• Strategies for preventing long-term absenteeism and why genuine attention to employee wellbeing matters
