What is the difference between a guide and a tool?

A guide helps you understand and choose. A tool helps you directly apply within your team or organization.

Which content is best for HR or executive management?

Choose guides for structure and internal dialogue, and review KPIs and absenteeism reduction if you wish to build a business case.

Where do I start if I notice high work pressure?

Start with the Work Pressure and Recovery hub, or begin with the Stress Scan if you want quick direction based on a baseline.

How up-to-date is the knowledge base?

We keep content practical and up to date. Articles display "last updated" so you know how recent the information is.

Where do I start if I don't know what I need yet?

Start with the Stress Scan. You will quickly gain insight and a logical next step for your situation.

What does lower absenteeism deliver?

Enter your own figures. You see straight away how the outcome is built up, assumptions included, so that you can check the sum internally.

Number of FTE Full-time equivalents, not headcount

Wage cost per day of absence

Gross salary plus employer contributions

Current absence rate

As your HR records measure it

Expected absence rate after the programme

Where you realistically want to be

Assumptions

Working days per year A full-time year minus weekends, public holidays and leave

The sum is exact: FTE x working days x the difference in absence x the cost per day. What you actually achieve depends on the percentage you enter above, and that is where the assumption sits, not in the sum.

Difference —

Fewer days of absence per year —

Indicative direct impact —

Indicative value of lower absenteeism per year —

This is the outcome of your own figures; the sum follows directly from what you entered. Whether you reach that expected percentage depends on context, scope and follow-through. This is not a direct cash saving but an indication of the financial value of the days of absence recovered in this scenario.
