Sickness absence (Illness reporting)

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by

Does anybody know how we can review and analyse sickness absence and report on absence in Talent.  In previous HR systems, we have been able to create absence triggers and\or use the Bradford Factor to manage sickness\illness.

There doesn't appear to be the functionality for this within Talent?

Can anybody offer advice?

Thanks

    Thanks Nicu.

    I got the later part.

    But when the minimum balance is set to only -40, every year its not getting renewed.

    Ex: I have tested by enrolling a worker into sickness on 1/4/2018 >> Have submitted 35 days request before 31/3/2019 >> Ran the batch job on 1/4/2019 >> Tried to submit 6 days, system threw error >> Submitted for 5 days, allowed >> Try to submit for 1 day, threw error.

    So I think setting min balance to only -40 is like allowing the worker to consume 40 at any point of time.

    Regards

    Pawan

    Hi Pawan,

    every year this bucket of -40 hours will be renewed. If the customer allows more than 40 hours, they should put there more than -40 hours.

    Or, the way I would do it now, is put 40 hours in the accrual amount and a minimum of -40 hours. this means a total of 80 hours. on the other hand they will see they are entitled to take 40 hours, but they will not see that they can go as far as -40, if you get what I mean.

    regards,

    Hi Nic,

    What if the customer wants to provide -40 every year? As per above, once 40 are consumed, system will not allow any request thereafter.

    Hi there,

    a better way is to setup this plan with zero accrual amount but with a minimum balance with negative value. This way you make sure they don't see the number of days they are allowed to take, but you still allow it a certain amount (here you can be flexible - 5 day/year, 10 days/year etc.

    please see my screen below

    Hi Charlotte,

    You could set up with 365 days of Sickness and Leave. then you don't have to worry about the limitation.

    Hi Nicu

    One of the problems that I can foresee with this is that you have to assign a certain number of days to each Leave and Absence Plan, do you know of any way of getting around this for things like Sickness, Compassionate Leave etc. where individuals do not have an 'entitlement' in the traditional way?

    Thanks

    Charlotte

    Hello,

    You need to create a Leave and Absence Plan, called Sickness/Illness and then enrol all employees into it. The employees would be able to take Sick Leaves. Then, in the Leave and Absence module, go to Analytics -> Current Balance Analysis sheet, and you will find the report for all types of absences. You could make additional reports using Power Bi if this is not enough.

    let me know if this helps.

    regards,

    nicu
