Absence Management - HR Training
Course Description
High levels of employee absence are a significant cost to an organisation. Absence can have a serious impact on the level of service to customers, productivity or an increase burden on those staff who are at work. The consequences of this could be low morale and increased stress. There are also direct cost implications for the organisation such as an increase in expenditure resulting from overtime or the use of agency staff. It is essential therefore that as a Manager, you control absence in the same as you would any other part of your job to ensure positive results.
This one-day course will help you achieve this important responsibility by focussing on the different types of absences and how to manage each type effectively. The course will be theory based with practical
exercises included.
