UPCOMING OCTOBER WEBINAR!

Attendance and leave issues are some of the trickiest challenges employers face. Most leaders want to be fair and supportive, yet many find themselves unsure when patterns start to emerge. Is this something to address, or something to leave alone? What can you ask? What should you document? How do you manage concerns without undermining trust or creating risk?

Our October webinar is designed to help employers and people managers approach attendance and leave with greater confidence and clarity. We will explore why these issues feel so uncomfortable, how to recognise when patterns matter, and how to respond in a way that balances empathy, fairness and accountability.

Rather than focusing purely on rules and compliance, this session takes a practical, human-centred approach. We will discuss how to open respectful conversations, how to support employees while still meeting business needs, and how to create consistency without becoming rigid or heavy-handed. Legal and compliance considerations will be covered in a clear and accessible way, so you understand your obligations without feeling overwhelmed.

This webinar is for employers and managers who want to handle attendance and leave issues early, fairly and with care, without damaging relationships or second-guessing every decision.

Key Takeaways:
• Greater confidence in managing attendance and leave issues
• A clearer understanding of how to balance empathy with fairness
• Practical guidance to support consistent decision making
• Reassurance around your legal obligations and responsibilities

Can’t make it live?
Register anyway, and we will send you the recording after the session.

LAST CHANCE TO REGISTER FOR TOMORROW’S WEBINAR!

• Set clearer expectations from the beginning
• Address small issues before they escalate
• Navigate misaligned values and limited self-awareness
• Handle promotion and pay conversations with confidence
• Give honest feedback without damaging engagement

This session is not about scripts or corporate jargon. It is about practical strategies you can use immediately to lead with clarity and confidence.

Designed for busy business owners and people managers who want straightforward, realistic tools that work.
