Mental health is now one of the leading causes of sickness absence in the UK, responsible for 27% of short-term and 41% of long-term absences.

When absence isn’t handled well, businesses face rising costs, team disruption, morale issues, and even discrimination risks.

That’s why our Partner, Citation, has created a FREE step-by-step guide to help you:

• Spot early signs of mental ill health and prevent absence
• Manage both short- and long-term absences confidently
• Support staff back to work through fair, consistent processes
