Whether it’s sickness, sabbatical, or some other personal reason, sometimes people are off work for a prolonged period of time.
As a manager, how do you minimize the impact when team members are away?
And are there any potential upsides?
Join the Pain Points team as they discuss long-term absences, sharing stories and tips about this common workplace challenge.
Talking points include:
- What’s it like when someone’s missing from your team?
- How can managers help to overcome these issues?
- Can you strengthen a team to prepare for potential absences?
- Can the person who's away do anything to help (before, during or after their absence)?
- Are there any benefits to someone being away from the team?
