An effective absence management strategy comprises many elements. Companies must have clear lines of responsibility, access to good quality attendance data and effective procedures for dealing with short-term and long-term absence. There is no single solution to reducing absence rates, but all effective approaches follow the basic principle of treating all employees fairly and consistently. Employers should not forget that they are, ultimately, dealing with people.
