How can I reduce casual absenteeism?
Over the years, we've found a direct correlation between intermittent FMLA leaves and casual absenteeism. Reducing leaves most always lowers absenteeism.

To do that, Work & Well performs something no other company does – a complete medical certification for FMLA. Like our competitors, we ensure that the leave meets the six criteria outlined by the DOL as a serious health condition. However, only Work & Well checks further to see how the condition prevents the employee from performing at least one essential job function.

By taking this extra step, we typically find a large amount of the intermittent FMLA requests do not qualify. As a result, absenteeism dwindles.
