There are several proactive methods
developed by Organizational Solutions Inc. that can

supports healthy workplace relations.
Our Service
Organizational Solutions Inc. will ensure your policies and procedures
meet the case law requirements while supporting the rights of
employers to establish attendance management protocols.
The establishment of an Attendance Management and Support
Program assists in clearly defining an organization’s position on
attendance and its management.
Employers have a right to expect
employees to attend work and are entitled to take a course of
action that will ensure organizational efficiency.
Positive attendance
expectations are good for morale and improve workplace health.
The many benefits of Attendance Management
include:
Management of innocent absenteeism from a company

innocent absenteeism (employees who are absent for reasons
beyond their control; like sickness and injury) which occurs

leave even though he/she is not sick, and it can be proven that
the employee was not sick.
