Strategic Absenteeism Management
Human Resources|5 days|Classroom or live online
Strategic Absenteeism Management looks at this work from the level at which it is resourced and defended. The focus is on disciplinary procedure, HR analytics and how both connect to what the organisation is actually trying to achieve. This matters at the strategic level because labour relations exposure now sits alongside financial risk on most executive agendas. Delegates leave able to work confidently with onboarding design, psychometric assessment and employee wellness in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where onboarding design is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against the Employment Equity Act
- Put psychometric assessment on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Take ownership of employee wellness rather than escalating it
- Review talent acquisition and say plainly whether it is working
