How healthy are my employees, and are we taking the right wellbeing approach?
Every organization faces absenteeism, which leads to significant costs and loss of productivity. Absenteeism occurs in various parts of the organization and manifests in different forms. Key aspects of absenteeism include frequency, duration, and the number of employees affected. Absenteeism also varies by role and function, and it remains a question whether it poses a problem or stays within acceptable limits. Due to its many components, absenteeism is a complex topic for your HR department. It's easy to lose oversight or focus on the wrong information.
▪️ So, how do you create a dashboard to manage this challenge?
▪️ And do you currently have the right processes, people, technology and data to address this?
We create a dashboard to provide insights into employee well-being in the following way:
Method?
We develop a dashboard that calculates and visualizes absenteeism KPIs, such as absenteeism by department, absenteeism duration, absenteeism frequency.
Outcome?
An interactive dashboard offering absenteeism insights. This dashboard provides personalized insights for different roles—executives, team leaders, HR, and occupational health services. Additionally, it allows for applying various filters and performing benchmarks between different parts of the organization, making it easy to identify where improvements are possible. The dashboard also shows whether measures to improve well-being are effective by displaying trends over time.
What is needed?
- Absenteeism history and HR data.
- Optional: Employee Satisfaction Survey (ESS) data.
Added Value?
No more fiddling with Excel or other tools. With just a few clicks, you get the right absenteeism information presented in an easy-to-understand way. That’s the power of a visualized absenteeism dashboard.
We identify the biggest opportunities to improve employee well-being together
Organizations often struggle with whether their approach to employee well-being is effective. Are you doing it right? Often, you don't see your shortcomings. This lack of insight can lead to poor employee well-being strategies, resulting in unnecessary absenteeism. How do you resolve this?
- Compare your approach with that of other organizations.
- A maturity model helps with this. This framework describes different approaches and shows what the best practices are.
Method?
We start with a questionnaire and, if necessary, additional interviews to evaluate the current situation.
Outcome?
We map out opportunities across processes, people, technology & data, and management. Consider aspects like:
- Decision-making based on intuition vs. facts
- Absenteeism as an HR issue or organization-wide concern
- Isolated surveys vs. a cohesive strategy
What is needed?
A questionnaire completed by a few employees involved in the well-being approach.
Added Value?
Establishing a clear vision of how to approach employee well-being. This gives focus to the colleagues working on it, enables HR to make informed decisions, and achieves results.
