CIPD
Hi Bernie – the CIPD is a good sources for this type of information. My best recollection is that absence costs roughly £650 per head at the moment – but if you take a look at the CIPD website http://www.cipd.co.uk you will get the latest and more comprehensive data.
Absence
The CIPD do a sickness absence survey (annually?) that provide key statistics/top reasons.
Return to work interviews can be very effective. If you would like more info on absence management email me at info@sjbealehrconsult.co.uk as I have lots of experience in this area.
