“... when we are alerted to
high levels of absence, such as musculoskeletal problems in the factory, we can proactively address them because we now have clear trigger levels in place.”

“Across 11,800 staff, GoodShape helped to recoup 33,040 working days within 12 months - or the equivalent of returning 144 full-time staff to work.”

“We estimate that we’ve saved £152,000 in terms of increased productivity and efficiency savings. This means that the absence service has provided a great return on investment, and having more employees available to work gives us a far greater opportunity to deliver a good service for our customers.”

What is return-to-work management?

 

Return-to-work management is the process of effectively facilitating and overseeing the return of employees to the workplace after an extended absence due to illness, injury, or other reasons.

It involves various tasks and responsibilities such as assessments and planning, health screening and employee support to ensure a smooth transition back to work for employees, while also addressing any necessary accommodations or adjustments to support their successful return. 

Return-to-work management - what we offer.

1.

Streamlined return-to-work process.

Our return-to-work software simplifies the return-to-work process for managers and HR professionals by providing automated notifications and reminders throughout the absence management journey.

From the moment an employee reports an absence, our software ensures that all stakeholders are kept informed and up-to-date on the status of the absence and the return-to-work process.

2.

RTW compliance management.

Compliance with relevant employment laws and regulations is vital when managing employee absences and returns to work. GoodShape's return-to-work software helps organisations stay on track and compliant by providing guidance and support throughout the process.

Our software ensures that all necessary documentation and procedures are followed, reducing the risk of non-compliance and potential legal issues.

3.

Personalised guidance with GoodShapeCentral.

As well as automated notifications and compliance management, GoodShape offers personalised advice and guidance on safe returns to work through our GoodShapeCentral platform.
