A project plan for a tailor-made absence policy

Your project plan for a tailor-made absence policy

Creating an absence policy that will garner widespread support is a process that cannot be accomplished overnight. That is why we will work together with you to draw up a project plan that is customised to your organisation. This plan will help you to take the right steps towards a sustainable positive absence policy.

A projectplan customised to your organisation
Mensura 10 oranje v2

At least 10% less short-term absence

Do you work with us to draw up a project plan tailored to your organisation? And then go on to implement it together?

Then you can count on a drop in short-term absenteeism of at least 10%.

And that makes a big difference. As an employer, you not only bear the cost of guaranteed wages for the first month of absence. Any replacements, reduced productivity, etc. also increase the cost.

Get inspired by the story of i-mens.

How do we draw up a project plan?

1. Intake
We start by asking in-depth questions. What absenteeism rates are you tracking? What absence actions are you already taking? What are your expectations? The responses to these questions will provide us with a clear understanding of your organisation's current situation.

2. GAP analysis
During the intake interview, we explore the steps your organisation still has to take in order to transition from its current approach to absenteeism to a well-defined absenteeism policy. We use a GAP analysis to establish your organisation's priorities.

3. ROI calculation
Let's be realistic: for your management, absenteeism is also a financial concern. That's why we calculate an absence policy’s return on investment for your organisation. Although establishing an absenteeism policy incurs costs, it more than pays for itself in the long term.

4. Developing the project plan
Enough research has been done – it’s time to develop your project plan. Each plan consists of five steps, ranging from analysis to follow-up. We tailor the plan to your specific challenges and goals, and provide you with a presentation for presenting it to your management.

Have you made a start on your collective reintegration policy?

A collective reintegration policy is an essential component of a global absenteeism approach. It is therefore not a stand-alone policy, but is closely intertwined with all aspects of your organisation.

The development of this type of policy therefore requires tailor-made solutions. A process that Mensura can guide and support you in.

Together with our consultants, you begin with a detailed project plan that provides insights into the current situation, points for improvement and the ROI of a 360° absenteeism approach.

You can also rely on the expertise and support of our consultants during the roll-out of the plan. Following five steps, they will guide you towards a sustainable positive absenteeism policy.

At the end of the process, you hold all the keys to minimising absenteeism and complying with the legal obligations of the collective reintegration policy.
