If your colleagues threaten to give in, Oh My People from the starting blocks. Coaching, career guidance, work resumption … We tackle every challenge with the right solution.

Being sick is no fun and it is not a choice you make.

For most employees who report sick, the absence is short-term and they quickly return to work. But for some, illness leads to a longer absence. Research by Securex of the absence data registered in the year 2022 shows that 42 % of employees who are absent for more than a month due to illness do not return to work for the same employer within a year. Experts agree that the longer the absence, the less likely it is that employees will successfully return to their original employer . Employees also appear to be asking for support after long absences. To meet this need for support, Oh My People developed the work resumption trajectory.

Work resumption trajectory:

During the return to work process, Oh My People supports your employees through a personal action plan and at the same time we offer them tools to prepare for the return to work. When your employee is ready - and only then - we take the step back to the workplace together with them . And towards an optimal return to work : partially , progressively or fully customized .

It consists of a semi-structured step-by-step plan that is tailored to the participant. Tailored to their personal situation and needs.
The techniques used in the process are scientifically substantiated techniques from psychology and interventions based on more than 20 years of experience of Elke Van Hoof.
Throughout the process, satisfaction, progress and impact are continuously monitored and evaluated. This way we can guarantee both quality and impact.

Why is there a need for support before and after returning to work:
