Fundamentals of Absenteeism Management

Human Resources|2 days|Classroom or live online

Fundamentals of Absenteeism Management is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through grievance handling and disciplinary procedure without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because labour relations exposure now sits alongside financial risk on most executive agendas, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with skills development planning, psychometric assessment and succession planning in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Bring skills development planning into line with current good practice, measured against the Ulrich HR business partner model
  • Explain psychometric assessment to someone who does not do the work
  • Review succession planning and say plainly whether it is working
  • Put employment equity reporting on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
