The budget depends on a range of factors, including the size of the organisation, it's geographical spread and the size of the problem.

 

Here's a rough guide.

 

¡

If the average number of days absent is less than 7, allocate an amount equivalent to 1 days absence, across the whole of your organisation.

 

If the average number of days absent is more than 7, allocate an amount equivalent to 2 days absence.

 

These days the average cost of a day's absence is around $250.

¡

Allocate an amount equivalent to 20% of your worker's compensation premium

 

We view money spent on WHFW as an investment, not a cost.
