On 25 February 2025, we delved into the topic of sickness absences and effective management strategies for staff illness.
Managing staff sickness can be challenging and costly for employers, especially when colleagues are classified as disabled under the Equality Act 2010.
Our experts, Rebecca McGuirk, Stephanie Taylor, and Rebecca Cheshire, guided you through the essential steps employers should take to support employees during both short-term and long-term sickness absences. They also discussed how to assist employees in managing health conditions while remaining at work, including implementing reasonable adjustments, and explored strategies to reduce sickness absences across your workforce.
