How to manage long-term employee absence

When is an employee classed as being long-term sick? Can you communicate with an employee who is long-term sick? How can you try to get them back to work?

All these questions and more are answered in the November’s Croner Solutions report – available FREE to IoIC members.

This month’s report looks at the issue of managing long-term absence by talking to employment law consultant William Wright. He looks at many common queries, including what happens if an employee is too unwell to return to work and what are the risks involved when dealing with long-term sick employees.

Other issues covered in this month’s Croner Solutions include:

• What is the scope of the right for agency workers to be informed of vacancies?
• Employment tribunal fees – where are we now?
• The limits of HR officers’ advice in disciplinary hearings
• Are you ready with your bags?, and
• The ‘legislation tracker’
