Although conducting and maintaining up to date workplace risks assessments is essential for organisations and businesses it is worth noting that whilst these assessments may take account of the needs of employees in general you should also conduct risks assessments particular to the needs on any person returning to work after a period of absence for sickness or extended medical leave.
This Return to Work Risk Assessment template is available free of charge and provides you with guidance in the steps you need to take to conduct your own risks assessment and attempt to identify and mitigate any risks that your employees may face when returning to work after an extended absence.
