3 Appendix 1 Sickness Absence, summary of main reasons 2015/16 Background The Trust recognises that employees are our most valuable asset in delivering a high quality, safe and cost effective service to the people it serves. This will be achieved by offering attractive and fair conditions of employment, flexible working opportunities, a healthy environment and above all encouraging all employees to play an active role in the Trust s future. The Trust aims to raise awareness to help employees maintain good levels of health and wellbeing, enabling everyone to contribute fully through regular attendance. The Trust encourages and promotes a culture which ensures that employees are aware that their regular attendance at work and contribution to their team is valued; and recognises the need to minimise the impact of non-attendance on both the individual, their colleagues and on operational services. The Trust is committed to supporting employees, as far as is reasonably practicable where they have an underlying medical condition impacting on their ability to perform their role and where they are committed to their recovery and rehabilitation. Supportive management of staff who are ill should, as far as possible, enable: Staff to return to work sooner; or Staff to continue in productive employment for longer; or The Trust to take a timely decision whether their employment can be sustained. Sickness Absence Review The Trust adopts a proactive / supportive approach to the management of staff who fall ill at work using the Trust Policy on Sickness Absence at Work. In context to local and national bench marking the information in Table 1 provides a summary of current performance of the Trust. This has established that the trusts approach and performance of sickness absence management benchmarks well in comparison to a number of local and national NHS Organisations. In the majority of cases the Trust percentage figures below the average current in-month sickness absence and rolling average figure. This supports that a proactive approach to the management of sickness absence is in place across the Trust, however the March 2016 figures are 0.75% away from the trusts target and provides a target to be worked towards across 2016/17. Further to this detailed work has been identified below in relation to trends and overall analysis of sickness absence information, to support this the current HR Business Partnering teams are aware of the information and are addressing through the introduction of local action plans and remedies. 3
4 Table 1 Sickness Absence Information (Including local and national benchmarking) Trust Target Mar-16 (%) Rolling Average (%) Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS FT Derby Teaching Hospitals NHS FT Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust Chesterfield Royal Hospital NHS FT Derbyshire Community Health Services NHS FT NB: Year to Date is average of past 12 months. National NHS absence rate is 4.45% (4.62% East Midlands). The information held within Chart 1 establishes Sickness Absence over a reference period April 2015 March 2016 and provides evidence of a reducing pattern of sickness since a peak within November Local intelligence would imply that this associated increase was consistent with a seasonal winter weathers but also the uncertainty of the organisational following the outcome of the Trusts CQC report and the unknown information proposed within the Long Term Partnership process. However since November absence levels have reduced which the anticipation to being at a similar level to the April 2015 figure. Chart 1: Sickness Absence (April 2015 March 2016) Chart 2 provides information covering the same period but is captured at a divisional level. The information suggests that significant improvement has been made in some areas for instance Newark and sustained improvement within Planned Care 4
5 and Surgery. The notable challenges are across Corporate, Emergency Care and Medicine, and Diagnostic and Rehab that have remained static. Chart 2: Sickness Absence per Division (April 2015 March 2016) In addition to the information identified in Charts 1 and 2 further analysis has been obtained in the relation Chart 3 Top 5 Reasons for FTE Days Lost (April 2015 March 2016), this data is also split by occupational group within table 2. This has identified that 34% of all absence within 2015 /16 was related to Anxiety / Stress / depression / other followed by other musculoskeletal at 23% and gastrointestinal problems at 17%. Chart 3: Top 5 Reasons for FTE Days Lost (April 2015 March 2016) 11% 15% 34% Anxiety/Stress/depression/other Other musculoskeletal Gastrointestinal problems Other known causes Back Problems 17% 23% 5
6 The Trust is currently reviewing the employee offer that Occupational Health can provide to support Anxiety / Stress / depression within the workplace and establishing what more can be done to tackle the top reason for absence within the workplace, including further staff counselling provision and the option of offering an additional e- counselling model. In addition to this the Divisional HR Business Partners play an active role in promoting the Trusts current offering to the management of Stress, through Resilience Training, Managing Stress at Work Talks and early intervention through Occupational Health referrals and Stress Risk Assessments. The Occupational Health Service offer fast track physiotherapy appointment in the anticipation of supporting back and other musculoskeletal problems and has been directed to particular staff group areas. In relation to Staff Grouping Registered Nurses are identified in 4 of the 5 absence reasons, and to support ward leaders a recent programme of development has been introduced to support leaders in regards to having difficult conversation allow the topic of sickness absence to be discussed at an earlier stage supporting a duty of call mind-set. Table 2: Top 5 Reasons for FTE Days Lost (April 2015 March 2016) by Staff Group Absence Reason Staff Group % Total FTE Days Lost 1 Anxiety/Stress/depression/other Registered Nurse 48.2% Anxiety/Stress/depression/other Admin & Clerical 24.5% Anxiety/Stress/depression/other Unregistered Nurse 20.1% 2 Other musculoskeletal Registered Nurse 35.3% Other musculoskeletal Unregistered Nurse 32.5% Other musculoskeletal Technical & Other 18.4% 3 Gastrointestinal problems Registered Nurse 38.0% Gastrointestinal problems Admin & Clerical 31.9% Gastrointestinal problems Unregistered Nurse 22.0% 4 Other known causes Registered Nurse 37.2% Other known causes Admin & Clerical 28.9% Other known causes Technical & Other 14.5% 5 Back Problems Unregistered Nurse 27.9% Back Problems Technical & Other 16.3% Back Problems Medical & Dental 8.3% Additional Information In addition an approach to offering further support to the reasons for sickness absence and establishing lessons learned from areas that are positivity managing 6
