Absence and Performance Management
Absence Management
At The HR Team, we offer expert support and guidance to help you proactively manage both long-term and short-term absenteeism. As an employer, it is crucial to remain supportive of your employees, especially if there are underlying reasons for their absence. We can help you devise, agree upon, implement, and review comprehensive return-to-work plans tailored to individual needs. Our goal is to empower you to take control of absence management in an appropriate and cost-effective manner, ensuring that your workplace remains productive and supportive.
Key elements of our absence management services include:
- Proactive Monitoring: Support you with regularly tracking attendance to identify patterns and address issues before they escalate.
- Supportive Interventions: Offering counselling and support to employees facing personal challenges that may affect their attendance.
- Return-to-Work Plans: Creating detailed plans to reintegrate employees smoothly back into the workplace after an absence.
- Policy Development: Assisting in the creation and implementation of clear absence policies that set expectations and procedures.
- Training for Managers: Equipping managers with the skills to handle absence-related issues sensitively and effectively.
Performance Management
Effective performance management is essential for ensuring that your investment in employees yields positive returns. From the moment a new employee joins your organisation, it is vital to monitor their progress, provide constructive feedback, and offer training to help them succeed. The same approach should be applied to existing employees to give them opportunities to discuss their roles, aspirations, training needs, and areas for improvement.
Regular performance appraisals are the most efficient way to facilitate these discussions. The HR Team can work with you to develop a performance appraisal process that aligns with your business needs. Our services can include:
- Process Development: Designing a tailored appraisal process that meets your specific requirements.
- Documentation Creation: Developing the necessary forms and documentation to support the appraisal process.
- Manager Training: Training managers in effective appraisal techniques to ensure they conduct meaningful and constructive reviews.
- Participation in Meetings: If preferred, we can take part in appraisal meetings to provide an objective perspective and additional support.
Partner with The HR Team to ensure your absence and performance management processes are robust, supportive, and aligned with your organisational goals. Let us help you create a work environment where employees feel valued, supported, and motivated to perform at their best.
