Podcast: Managing long-term sickness absence

On this week's XpertHR Weekly, we review the findings of the XpertHR managing long-term sickness absence survey 2015. We look at the main causes of long-term sickness absence and its impact on organisations. We discuss, among other things, the role of line managers, HR and occupational health in managing sickness absence, and provide examples of permanent and temporary adjustments that may facilitate an employee's return to work.

Presenter Jeya Thiruchelvam is joined by Noelle Murphy.
