The impact of long leaves on employees; can delay work, causing projects to fall behind schedule. They create stress for other workers, who must make up for lost productivity. It can impact cost on company, because other people may need to work overtime to make up for the time lost, they add to overtime bills.

Suggestions to start improving the situation, apply some of the management principles and, use some of these guidelines to further minimize unnecessary sick days:

  • Become aware of, and responsive to, subtle indications of worker unhappiness or tension.
  • Offer rewards for zero absenteeism.
  • Carefully educate new hires about company policies. If policies change, make sure that you educate everyone on these.
  • Research and discover new methods for reducing physical stress that workers may suffer on the job – for example, where they're standing all day, or performing repetitive movements.
  • Provide training for managers and supervisors so they can deal perceptively and effectively with staff who have a lot of unexplained sick leave.
  • Offer opportunities for in-house exercise.
  • Consider giving workers additional days off, as part of their annual benefits that are specifically for "preventive health care."
  • Be flexible about allowing workers to make up time they've taken off for a legitimate reason – for example, to care for a sick family member. If people have the "responsible" option to make up a lost day by working a few extra hours each day in the following week, rather than using up their valuable vacation time, they may not feel the need to take a sick day.

These are some solutions consider the workers' needs, and they also help ensure that your team will be more enthusiastic and dedicated in return.
