What is absence management?
Your HR Glossary questions, answered
Absence management is the process of recording and tracking all employee absences within an organisation.
Absence management includes tracking sickness absences from work – everything from who should be informed if an employee is ill, to the reason for their absence (if disclosed), how long they need to take off from work, and how all of this information is recorded. Good absence management practices mean that employees feel supported, resources can be carefully planned around absences, and any issues within teams can be addressed accordingly.
