Failing to accurately record employee attendance can have risky legal consequences, companies are warned

Failing to properly record their employees’ sickness absences could have risky legal repercussions, UK companies are being warned.

Market research by a leading global professional services firm Aon has revealed that many employers fail to accurately record their staff’s absence. This poses a legal risk which can negatively impact insurance premiums, increase business risks for staff involved in the process and impact claim payouts.

Group risk insurers require information on who is absent, the reason for their absence and the duration of leave. However, Aon says that some employers do not record absence or have gaps in the data they provide to insurers.
