Return to Work Workflow

A return-to-work workflow gives the employee and manager a structured process after sickness. Sense can trigger a form, collect the employee's information, route it to the manager, and record sign-off in the employee record.

Return to Work Workflow

How it works

The process creates a consistent record of the conversation and avoids relying on managers to remember the follow-up.

1

Sickness record logged

A sickness record that requires return-to-work completion is logged.

2

Process triggered

Sense can trigger the process immediately, on the next suitable working day, or on the employee's next clock-in.

3

Employee completes section

The employee completes and signs their section.

4

Manager reviews and signs

The manager reviews and signs the next step.
