First aid for absenteeism

Sickness absence is a reality in every organization. But how do you move from separate initiatives to a well-thought-out, proactive attendance policy?

In this webinar, we take you through the different steps needed to arrive at an approach that has broad support.

Does this sound familiar?

• Do we have a view of our figures, and do we do anything with them?
• Do we have a clear vision and agreements on attendance and reintegration?
• Do we know the legal framework and the support available?
• Are roles and responsibilities clear?
• How do we ensure a good rollout and raise awareness?

In this webinar, Katrien Bruyninx, prevention adviser for psychosocial aspects at IDEWE, takes you through the full process behind an attendance policy, from vision to follow-up, and the steps needed to arrive at an approach that has broad support.

How do you determine your starting point and set priorities? How do you work on a vision? Which figures do you record, and how do you bring them to life in an organization? Who keeps in touch during sickness, and which collective agreements do you make on reintegration and adapted work? And finally, how do you make sure the policy is structurally anchored in the organization?

You will get:

an audit framework to screen your attendance policy on six pillars

a way of working that gets sickness absence figures to the people who can act on them

a model for a framework of agreements: who does what, before, during and after the absence

insights from ten years of research into reintegration in Belgium

This webinar is for HR professionals and managers who are looking for a process that keeps running, rather than yet another initiative.
