Outline

This module helps managers confidently and consistently manage absence in an SME setting. It focuses on having the right conversations, spotting patterns early, and taking appropriate action while balancing employee wellbeing with business needs. 

We will cover: 

  • What good absence management looks like in practice – what to include in an absence policy 
  • Understanding and applying your absence policy consistently 
  • Conducting effective return-to-work conversations 
  • Spotting patterns and knowing when to take the next steps 
  • Knowing when to manage absence yourself and when to involve HR

Reviews

Thank you for a great course
“Very knowledgeable tutor, enjoyed the fact that we are given questions and answers as a group to get other peoples opinions. Also that we do role play to get the feel of a real life event.”

Need to train a lot of people?

In addition to our public scheduled courses, we also offer the option of on-demand private training that’s exclusive to your organisation.

This can provide a particularly convenient and cost-effective solution if you have a large number of staff members to train.

And it’s also tremendously flexible.

Since on-demand courses only have your delegates attending, we can customise them to be specific to the policies and processes of your organisation, and tailor course lengths and depths to suit your particular needs. Likewise, we can combine material from several existing courses, develop fully bespoke content, or combine multiple courses into full programmes of training.

And we can deliver this training whenever and wherever is best for you; in-house at your venue, at one of our training venues, somewhere else entirely, online, or any combination of these.

To find out more about our delivery options, please contact us to arrange an informal chat with one of our friendly and down-to-earth training instructors.

Need something different?

To better balance your required depth of learning with your time and budget constraints, we offer a number of different length courses covering the same material. Likewise, we also offer training covering a range of other management-related topic areas.

Already know what you want? Great, let’s get to it!

Not sure exactly what you need? No problem!

Our friendly and down-to-earth management training experts will point you in the right direction. We’d love to have an informal chat to find out more about your business and so help you identify the areas most in need of attention.

We’re not after a quick sale, we’re all about building long-term relationships. In fact, we don’t even employ any sales people. Which means that right from the start you’ll be talking directly to someone who can actually help you.

We’re ready and waiting, so just get in touch!
