MORE ABOUT THIS COURSE

Managing absenteeism and leave abuse becomes increasingly important as the Labour Laws Amendment Act comes into effect with extended parental, adoption, and commissioning parental leave. The reality is that workforce planning and production as well as labour relations processes to deal with these instances become more critical than ever. Managing absenteeism requires an integrated strategy and leave abuse must be stamped out unconditionally. Join us to get the inside track on this.
