Clients requirements
A School identified that their staff absence levels were higher than anticipated and this was starting to have a real detrimental effect on the performance of the School. They approached Kape HR for advice about how to try and address this issue.
What we did
- Met with the Leadership team to gain an understanding of the current processes and procedures for managing absence.
- Analysed the existing absence/attendance data to capture a true picture of the situation.
- Arranged meetings with any employee who had met the absence triggers to produce an individual absence management plan.
- Devised a robust programme for the ongoing management of absence and monitoring of whole school attendance.
- Carry out bi-annual reviews of whole School attendance data and advise on any appropriate action to be taken.
Outcome
The overall absence levels across the School have reduced with a significant reduction in the short-term absence levels, this has led to an increase in overall productivity and performance.
