Sickness Absence Management

Most absence is genuine. Managing absence due to sickness requires effective people management policies, which may be helped by a focus on employee well-being. Research shows that where line managers have training in absence management, there is a decrease in sickness absence rates. However, many small and medium sized enterprises provide very little or no training to line managers and therefore fail to get the benefits of effective absence management.
