Podcast: 2016 survey on managing sickness absence

We take a look at the key findings of the 2016 XpertHR survey on tackling sickness absence effectively. We reveal the least and most effective techniques for dealing with sickness absence, including engaging and supporting line managers and using HR data and analytics. We also look at the effectiveness of fit notes, wellness programmes and the new Fit for Work scheme in helping employees return to work after sick leave.

Presenter Susan Dennehy is joined by Noelle Murphy. Edited and produced by Laura Kimpton.
