The main causes of long term absence (more than 7 days) are acute medical conditions, e.g. back pain, musculo-skeletal injuries, stress and mental health problems. At Duradiamond Healthcare we use Occupational Health Advisors as a central referral point and work closely with physiotherapists, psychologists, counsellors, and if necessary other specialists, to actively intervene to resolve an absence. We advocate starting intervention as soon as possible either very early on in an absence or ideally pre absence. This coordinated approach and focus on vocational rehabilitation has produced startling results. With support from employers and the work force, we have improved sickness absence by up to 40%. This has resulted in an excellent return on investment and a marked improvement in employee satisfaction. We work closely with employers and health professionals to tackle sickness absence and we can advise you how an individual employee's health problem is likely to affect their performance and attendance at work. All our advice takes into account the individual company’s policies and procedures for management of absence.
