I'm in the process of putting together training on absence management which will cover the return to work interview, a formal absence management meeting and a potential dismissal meeting. Does anyone have any examples of role plays in this area which they are willing to share with me.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Absence management role plays
Hi Claire
I like to give every ‘manager’ the same brief (general performance of the employee, previous absences, etc) but with each ‘employee’ having a different underlying issue, which tests the manager’s ability to get to the root of the problem.
E.g. underlying reasons for being absence might be:
Each of these 3 scenarios may call for a different response and level of support from the manager, and illustrates to the group the importance of getting to the root cause.
Hope this helps

A role play scenario on absence management
Hi Claire
I have a role play scenario consisting of a pair of A4 briefs for manager and staff member to role play a back to work interview. It has a twist (if the manager is patient enough with the team member) written into the staff member brief. Download at http://www.abctrainingsolutions.biz/management_skills_free_download.html and scroll to top resource: ‘Absence Management Role Play’. Please use/amend to fit your needs.
Hope that helps
