medical assistance / counselling


Explanation:
ziekteverzuim is usually sickness absence, but I think in this context, medical assistance might fit better

neutral  Kitty Brussaard: Volgens mij verwijst dit vooral naar het (cijfermatig) monitoren van ziekteverzuim. 'Ziekteverzuimbegeleiding' gaat eerder over het begeleiden van zieke medewerkers (naar werkhervatting) door medewerkers/artsen van een (interne of externe) arbodienst.

Bedankt allemaal! Ik heb voor "absenteeism management" gekozen.

neutral  Oliver Pekelharing: Which one are you suggesting?
9 mins
  -> take your pick, though my preference would go for management as this what a company would be more looking for.

agree  Tina Vonhof (X): Absenteeism (management) program.
5 hrs
  -> Bedankt

agree  Toiny Van der Putte-Rademakers: Helemaal eens. Ik heb navraag gedaan bij Falke en Verbaan (falkeverbaan.nl), een van de grotere bedrijven die absenteeism management in Nederland doen.
11 hrs
  -> Bedankt, maakt zin voor mij in elk geval

neutral  Kitty Brussaard: 'Absenteeism management' IMO refers to 'ziekteverzuimbeheersing' rather than 'ziekteverzuimbegeleiding' (i.e. provision of rehabilitation support through medical or counselling services). The latter forms part of the former, but is not the same as ... :-)
12 hrs
  -> Management is een zeer wijd begrip dat niet alleen beheer insluit maar ook motivering (waarin begeleiding) e.d.m. heel goed inpas). Ik kan me niet voorstellen dat een Mpij uitsluitend met een aspekt onder ogen zal en wil nemen.

rehabilitation measures


Explanation:
De Juridisch - Economish Lexicon gives:

ziekteverzuimbegeleiding
rehabilitation measures
rehabilitation process

Also see the following websites:
http://journals.lww.com/intjrehabilres/Abstract/2001/09000/A...
"rehabilitation process can be initiated as soon as the working capacity of a person or work community is threatened but is not yet seriously impaired. Rehabilitation is principally carried out on an outpatient basis alongside ordinary work."
http://www.personneltoday.com/articles/2007/04/19/40202/the-...
"Additionally, most of the research surrounding long-term absence and rehabilitation measures is taken from the employer perspective, mainly from human resource professionals and senior managers."

agree  Kitty Brussaard: Or perhaps in this case also 'rehabilitation (support) services'
35 mins
  -> Thanks, Kitty!

neutral  Oliver Pekelharing: agree that 'management' has too much scope (includes prevention and monitoring, for example). Rehabilitation, on the other hand, seems to have too little, referring only to healthcare aspects.
10 hrs
  -> That is the point!
