246 King Consulting Helps To Enhance Employee Productivity and Performance and Reduce Costs
Reducing Employee Absence and Promoting Employee Health and Wellbeing at Work
The 2023 Health and Wellbeing at Work survey report from CIPD in partnership with Simply Health found that the average rate of employee absence is 7.8 days per employee or 3.4% of working time lost. Employee absence has direct and indirect costs. Direct costs include sick pay, low productivity and reduced productivity from using temporary workers and returning employees. Indirect costs of employee absence include increased pressure on employees, low staff morale, overtime and costs for temporary staff.
At 246 King Consulting, we believe that healthy employees are more likely to be productive and find meaning and purpose in their work than those who are unhealthy and unwell. We are grounded in the values of honesty, integrity and consistency.
To assist organisations in the reduction of employee absence and the promotion of employee health and wellbeing at work, the qualified and trained professionals at 246 King Consulting offer exceptional business consulting services from an international perspective specialising in health and wellbeing at work, absence management and mental health training.
