Absenteeism management and prevention
Absenteeism related to mental health problems at work remains a challenge for today’s businesses. In Canada, numbers show that one person in five is likely to experience a mental health problem in his or her lifetime, which translates into nearly six (6) million Canadians (Health Canada, 2003. Canadian Health Network). It is estimated that mental health problems are the most common cause of work disability.
- How can we help an employee who is returning to work after a prolonged leave of absence due to a disability?
- How do we restore an appropriate climate within the workplace when it is affected by a high rate of absenteeism?
- How do we identify risk factors that may be linked to increased rates of absenteeism at work?
