Absenteeism Management: Tools and Techniques
Human Resources|3 days|Classroom or live online
This is a hands-on programme. Delegates spend most of the time working through grievance handling and employee wellness on live scenarios rather than listening to theory about them. The practical emphasis is deliberate: organisations are being asked to prove the return on their people spend, and reading about the method has repeatedly proved insufficient. Delegates leave able to work confidently with workforce planning, skills development planning and job evaluation and grading in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Explain workforce planning to someone who does not do the work, measured against the SABPP competency model
- Put skills development planning on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Review job evaluation and grading and say plainly whether it is working
- Improve CCMA preparation within their own organisation
