The enhanced sickness management procedure

 

●

Line managers complete a referral form that is 

forwarded to Occupational Health staff who decide to 

conduct a face-to-face consultation or make a desktop 

assessment – and in either case provide any advice 

necessary to the manager or the individual and send a 

report to the manager and HR.

 

●

Within 10 days of receiving the report the manager 

meets the employee to review the sickness record, 

consider any further explanations for the absence, 

discuss the report from Occupational Health and  

agree action to improve attendance and minimize 

sickness.

 

●

As necessary, especially in cases of disability, 

Occupational Health will discuss with the manager  

and the employee any reasonable adaptations to the 

work environment that may be helpful.
