HI everyone.
I am currently working on a project with HR colleagues to review the methods
of collecting sickness absence data and what data we should be collecting,
for how long etc. I would be grateful if anyone would be willing to share
practice on this please.
If you have a process for recording sickness absence, please could you take
a few minutes to answer complete the questions below:
Could you outline how it works?
What classification systems are used to capture reasons for sickness
absence?
(ICD, Reed codes, CIPD or AXAppp absence survey classification, Own
in-house system, other ??)
Who inputs in information?
How do ensure that diagnoses on sick notes are put into the correct
classification?
How do you identify if the sickness might have been caused by
something at work?
(If it is thought to be work related does this trigger an
investigation to establish the facts and root causes?)
Where is the information stored? ( HR or OH database or other)
Who has access to it?
How do you manage the protection of employees' confidentiality?
How long do you keep data for?
How do you use the output from the system?
What organisational benefits have you seen since the implementation?
How confident are you that data is maintained?
Thank you for your help. If you want to reply directly to me then when I
get all the results I can post back a summary from everyone if that is
easier
Best wishes
Margaret
