Loch helps employers manage short-term absence by acting as an extension of your team to put clear, pragmatic processes in place. Our HR consultants review your policies, track absence data to spot patterns early, and hold supportive conversations that get to the root cause. With input from our HR, medical and support specialists, we assess cases, liaise with occupational health/GPs, interpret medical reports, and give practical, risk-aware advice. We can guide or run return-to-work meetings, build tailored plans and train managers to handle absence confidently, all while recommending wellbeing initiatives that encourage recovery, retention and a healthy attendance culture.
