Managing Employees on Leaves of Absence
When employees need to take time off to care for their own injury or illness, or for a family member’s, your role is to understand how long they plan to be out on leave, request updates on their expected return, and effectively plan and manage your team's workload and expectations during the leave.
Sedgwick, our Disability and Leave Administrator, will handle the rest. Sedgwick is the first point of contact for your employees with questions about disability and leave, and you'll be able to see an overview of your team's leaves in their My Leaves portal.
