How many days off sick?

by Emma

The TUC is calling on employers to provide better occupational health assistance after it discovered that 175 million days were lost through sickness absence in 2006 (at an estimated cost of £650 per employee).  It has published a new educational workbook today on the topic  called “Occupational Health: Dealing with the Issues” and plans to train up 15,000 workplace safety representatives to use the workbook and advise employers on how to provide healthier solutions for employees.
