Your independent partner in absenteeism

Staff is your most valuable business asset. Without their commitment and expertise, it is impossible to provide optimal service to customers. When a staff member drops out due to illness, your organization faces significant challenges. You must ensure that business operations continue to run smoothly, while at the same time coping with the additional workload created by a colleague's absence. Moreover, it is crucial to get the sick employee back to work as quickly and responsibly as possible, ensuring both their well-being and employability and the continuity of your business.

Comprehensive customized service even without an insurance product

Independent advice; your sparring partner

"We don't have a sick person very often, but sometimes I just find a case difficult. The occupational health and safety service does provide guidance, but really I also want to be able to spar with an independent advisor who is there just for me." 

You do not have to have all the necessary expertise to act appropriately when an employee is ill. Do you have to deal with absenteeism and you want an independent discussion partner, then you can turn to De Verzuimconsultant for a targeted approach and practical advice. De Verzuimconsultant offers the possibility for telephone contact, digital appointments or a personal visit. This low-threshold service is offered by Schouten Zekerheid through a service agreement and is available from as little as five hours every twelve months. In this way, you maintain control over sick leave, avoid unnecessarily long processes and minimize the financial impact.

Training for executives

"Employees have to call in sick with me, but I have no idea what I can and cannot ask. And with long absences, I don't know what to look for and what to do. I find sick leave especially complicated and difficult." 

Recognizable for your executives? An absence training at your company location offers an effective solution. Prior to the training, the Absenteeism Consultant discusses the specific issues concerning absenteeism within your company and develops a customized program for the managers. Your managers will receive tools to deal efficiently with cases of absence and to recognize urgencies. Subjects such as cooperation with the Occupational Health and Safety Service, psychological absenteeism, laws and regulations, interview techniques and practicing with your own cases can also be addressed.

After the training, your managers will have the knowledge and skills to effectively manage sick leave and, where possible, and have more confidence in their own approach.

Posting

"With one in five employees sick every day, our nursing department cannot run normally. And as a team leader, all day I'm just planning and calling in the sick." 

Sometimes absenteeism problems cannot be solved with advice alone. For example, when the absenteeism rate within a team is significantly higher than normal and does not seem to be decreasing. It may also be that you have an urgent need for additional support in internal absence management. In such cases, De Verzuimconsultant can be a valuable addition to your organization. On the basis of a service agreement and with clear predefined objectives, you can second De Verzuimconsultant to your organization. De Verzuimconsultant tackles acute problems and makes recommendations for sustainable solutions for the future.

Absence Protocol 

"At first I only had a few employees, but now we have grown rapidly and have regular sick leave. Everyone handles it differently and there is no clear way of working." 

A good start is half the battle. In a sick leave protocol, you lay down the agreements, rules and procedures that apply in the event of sick leave. You also describe the roles, rights and obligations of everyone involved. What can you and the employees expect from each other? What are the tasks of the occupational health and safety service and the company doctor? Is there also an option for preventive support for your employees? And how are accrued vacation days and continued pay during illness regulated?

For a fixed price, De Verzuimconsultant draws up a customized absence protocol for your organization. This offers clarity to your employees and practical guidelines for everyone involved in absence management. In this way you avoid uncertainty and minimize unnecessary long-term absenteeism.

With The Absenteeism Consultant, Schouten Zekerheid focuses on the unique and specific needs of your organization, regardless of size or sector.
