Absence & sickness
Absence and sickness places huge pressure on many businesses. Whether it is musculo-skeletal or stress related (the top two categories) or something else, the reality is that if it's not well handled and promptly addressed, the cost and disruption to the organisation can be huge.
Similarly, regular short-term absence stretches resources and often places pressure on colleagues and deadlines.
Outset has a wealth of legal and practical experience in handling long and short-term sickness issues. That means we understand and advise on the performance management, disciplinary and disability implications, depending on the individual circumstances.
The key to handling absence and sickness is to act early with a confident understanding of the highly complex legal framework. It is best, in other words, to take advice from the outset!
