Sickness Absence Analysis Services

We can help you analyse your Sickness Absence and identify how our Physiotherapy Service could help your business.

By evaluating your data we can help you predict how much time off and sickness absence wages you are likely to save with a cost-effective Occupational Health Physiotherapy Service.

At Occupational Health Physiotherapy we have found almost every company will track their Sickness Absence as part of HR and sick pay through their accounts department. They also usually record the number of sick days and episodes in the workplace. We usually find that businesses are collecting the data but not analysing it close enough to help them make the best choices for reducing and managing Sickness absence.

Easy things that can be done include dividing the sickness absence into 3 categories:

• Musculoskeletal – e.g Back, Neck, shoulder problems
• Medical – e.g. flu, stomach bugs, heart problems
• Psychological – e.g Stress, depression, anxiety

Once this task has been done the results will highlight the amounts of sickness absence (in hours or days) and the associated costs of this time per category. With this information, you can decide where to put your time and resources and where you may need some external help.

It is always best to look at prevention rather than having to deal with the result of not acting. Our analysis and physiotherapy services help reduce niggles and injuries at work. For those we cannot prevent, we assess and treat them while they are still at work hoping to decrease the probability of them having to go off triggering a sickness absence episode.

For the few musculoskeletal problems that need time off, they will receive quality, fast access physiotherapy from a team of great physios that also understand their job roles. Their rehabilitation plan will help them achieve the level of fitness they need for a successful return to work.
