Productivity & Well-being

With the average cost of absence standing at £434 per employee per year and rising fast, staff absence is an issue which no competitive organisation can afford to ignore. When you take into account the myriad of issues that arise as a result of absenteeism including reduced productivity, customer service issues and damage to morale, it is no wonder that a recent survey by FirstAssist cited absence as being the number one issue affecting organisations today.

activ8 believe that absence is a symptom of underperformance, not the cause. Our analytical approach identifies the drivers of employee well-being and highlights the linkages to productivity. This unique approach provides organisations with the intelligence required to enable them to take the necessary steps to most effectively reduce absence and healthcare costs whilst optimising productivity.

activ8's unique proprietary tools also enable organisations to take a more proactive and holistic view of employee well-being. Many of our clients use our technology to  predict the likely hot spots of absence so that preventative measures can be taken before business productivity is impacted. This same predictive power can also be used to inform recruitment and performance management discussions for maximum benefit.
