I do not have any data , but having worked in the private and public sector I would think that your hypothesis could easily be proved. regards Pauline ----- Original Message ----- From: "Glenn Raybone" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Thursday, December 17, 2009 2:38 PM Subject: [OCC-HEALTH] Sickness rates Hello Can I ask if anyone on the list works for an organisation that doesn't have sick- pay provision and just SSP. In such a situation can I ask if your sickness absence rates are any worse than national averages and also what the causes for absence are. I ask as the NHS has very generous sick-pay provision, but the sceptic in me does wonder if this encourages some to have extra absence or longer than is actually needed. To maintain confidentiality please email me off-list if you prefer. Season Greetings Glenn ******************************** Please remove this footer before replying.
