Employer Solutions: Cautionary Tales of Workers’ Compensation and Absence Management

Using an integrated disability and absence management approach helps employers avoid gaps in coverage as well and mismatched expectations with job accommodations, disability insurance, paid leaves, unpaid leaves, and more!

Engaging Today’s Workforce: IDAM Benefits Boost Outcomes

While taking an integrated approach to disability and absence management can streamline processes, minimize administrative work, and foster healthier work environments, true success comes when employers take a holistic view!

Benchmarking: Are You Doing It Right?

Compare your IDAM plans and policies with industry norms and best practices to strike a balance between processes that are supportive, encourage employees to return to work, and provide a positive employee experience.

Absence Matters: Beyond Parental Leave

Are employers doing enough to support new parents if all they do is offer paid parental leave?

Can Employer Leave Policies and CBAs Coexist?

While challenging to manage leaves for an organization with a union and a collective bargaining agreement (CBA), employers that navigate policy elements can not only reach agreements, they can build relationships and achieve success.

Employer Showcase: Are Your Employees Neurodiverse or Neurodivergent?

The word neurodiverse is sometimes used interchangeably with neurodivergent, which describes a way of thinking or cognitively processing information that is different from most people. And that difference can cause workplace challenges that affect productivity, performance, and interpersonal interactions.

How Can Employers Support Workers with PTSD?

Employers can help change the dynamic for team members with post-traumatic stress disorder to help them stay at work, return to work as soon as possible when a leave of absence is needed. Education and training are key to success to support employees and know when this and other mental health issues should be considered workers’ compensation claims.

Where’s Your Moxie?

There are myriad reasons to adopt an integrated disability and absence management (IDAM) approach — from streamlining efficiencies to minimizing risks, and helping employees stay at work and return to work (RTW) more quickly. There’s also a bottom-line motivation, a liability for not doing it, and a cultural component that should get more attention than it does. So why isn’t it more common?

The Art and Science of Employer Compliance

While tracking and managing hundreds of laws that regulate integrated disability and absence management (IDAM) is essential for employer compliance, implementation is where magic can happen. It is also where liability can lurk, which is one reason why hundreds of IDAM professionals gather annually at DMEC compliance conferences to enhance their understanding of these laws and find effective solutions.
