🤒 Absenteeism and sick leave in the workplace—how do they affect your business? High absenteeism can sometimes be a symptom of a greater cultural issue such as poor leadership, workplace bullying, or lack of employee engagement. All these issues require a whole different approach. It’s important to allow for instances where employees may genuinely need to access personal and carer’s leave. However, continuously high rates of employee absenteeism may indicate other workplace issues that need to be addressed. 🙋 One of the most common questions we are asked when it comes to sick leave and absenteeism is: when is disciplinary action appropriate? Disciplinary action related to sick leave and absenteeism isn’t one-size-fits-all. Navigating where disciplinary action should and can be taken must be approached carefully, especially when it concerns employees who have taken a period of personal or carer’s leave. Want to learn more about how sick leave and absenteeism could affect your workplace? We wrote an article on the topic: https://lnkd.in/gbCi7DuY #sickleave #employerresponsibility
