Dealing with Absenteeism

Management Essentials

Absenteeism costs organisations billions in revenue every year. But when someone calls in sick, it doesn't necessarily mean that they're unwell. Managers can deal with this sensitive subject area in three simple stages. Chapter 1: Recognising Absenteeism. Learn how to acknowledge the problem, look out for signs and patters, how to keep records so you have the facts, and how to tackle absence as soon as possible. Chapter 2: Reasons for Absenteeism. The best approach to finding out the reasons behind absenteeism is to do it face to face, but don't forget to prepare your emotions and the facts, then ask what is wrong and probe. Chapter 3: Solutions to Absenteeism. Steps to solving issues of absenteeism include getting them to take responsibility, but be prepared to be flexible, agree a plan of action, and learn how to monitor.
