Date: 7th November 2025

Time: 14:00 to 16:00

This session highlights the essentials of our Managing Sickness Absence policy and processes, equipping you to deliver a fair and consistent approach to handling absences within your team.

This key people policy underpins our approach to providing the right support to team members who are absent from work due to ill health and is an integral part of day-to-day people management responsibilities.

Specific sessions can be arranged for Service areas that have several people managers who require this training. Get in touch to find out more by emailing learn.develop@orkney.gov.uk.

This training is delivered by our Senior HR Adviser, Ashleigh Gillespie in person at the Bunker, School Place.
