Sadly, you can’t press a magic button to prevent staff absence. But, with a combination of tools, you can take steps to minimise it.?Developing effective return-to-work programmes, helpful workplace adjustments and offering flexible or hybrid working form part of an effective attendance management strategy. Employers should remember that most absence is genuine and that employees often need recovery support even after their return to work from illness.

The UK legal position

Used properly, the Acas?Code of practice on disciplinary and grievance procedures, and the employer’s own absence management and other procedures, provide the main tools for addressing unacceptable absence. See more in our?discipline and grievances at work factsheet.

Disability discrimination

Employers may need to make ‘reasonable adjustments’ under the Equality Act 2010 to support employees with disabilities or health conditions. For more on addressing these issues, see our factsheets on workplace?disability,?stress?and?mental health.
