We purposely dont call or write etc as we dont want situations where they are wondering why their manager never told them they were being referred.
We felt it was best that the manager discuss the reasons for referral and ask them to contact us to arrange an appt.
We dont have lots of DNA's and it works quite well as we let the manager know of the DNA and they wont be long chasing them!!
This is more about the manager managing their people than anything else.

Afterwards it is then the responsibility of the referred employee to book an appt with OHD, we do not chase them or contact them


Can I ask how many actually do this?? We send appointments to ours and still have a few DNA. To try and combat this I now try and contact as many as possible by 'phone, obviously depending on each case and the reasons given for the referral.
