HR Services | Absence Management
Absence costs companies money through lost productivity. It regularly puts unnecessary pressure upon, or causes ill-feeling amongst, those staff that do not take time off.
You may not be able to avert genuine illness but SFM Consulting can help you put a simple system in place to manage those staff that take time off too frequently. The benefits of reducing sickness absence go straight to the bottom line and often has a positive impact on morale.
The converse of absence - presenteeism - can also present organisations with problems. When staff are suffering from a contagious ailment such as an upper respiratory tract infection or an infectious stomach bug (eg Norovirus - the winter vomiting bug) coming into work should be discouraged.
Hygiene plays an important role in the spread of communicable illnesses. SFM Consulting provides practical advice on how to improve hygiene and reduce the risks of spreading illness in the work place.
