Get ahead of SSP reforms – a practical guide for UK employers

In partnership with our friends at Adviser Plus, this webinar discussed the practical, proven strategies that transform HR operations and empower managers – those at the coalface of the employee experience – to build a healthier workplace culture and achieve a significant reduction in absence rates and costs.

In this session, we covered:

  • What’s changing and the impact: Understanding what the new SSP rules mean for your business, including any impact on enhanced company sick pay
  • Meaningful steps to reduce absence: Learning how a robust employee relations operating model supports managers and teams to reduce absence proactively
  • Get proactive with HR data: Adopting a proactive, data-driven approach that brings consistency, reduces costs, and enables timely interventions
  • Manager confidence: Identifying the capability gaps that contribute to avoidable absence and closing them with the right tools and training
  • Proof it works: Hearing how a major UK retailer cut absence rates by 10% in 12 months with a next-level employee relations strategy
  • Tools for success: Ensuring the essentials are covered, from updating policies and employment contracts to enhancing return-to-work processes.
