Absence Solutions

Sickness Absence can have a dramatic affect on organisations, damaging profitability and generating a significant human cost. According to the CBI (2004), sickness absence cost the UK industry £11.6 billion in 2003.

Absence Solutions from the Calma Partnership not only supports the rehabilitation of absent employees but also helps organisations to identify trends and develop absence reduction strategies.

In this way, the Calma Partnership takes a wider organisational systemic approach, responding to the symptoms and the causes, whilst offering services to combat potential absence.

For instance, Employee Assistance Programmes encourage employees who are experiencing difficulties to seek prompt attention, thereby reducing the potential for subsequent absence.

Please contact the Calma Partnership to discuss how we can provide your organisation with Absence Solutions.
