Join healthcare leaders from across Canada for two practical half-days focused on one of hospitals’ most pressing workforce challenges.
Through real-world case studies, expert-led sessions, and structured peer round tables, you’ll explore practical approaches to attendance support, disability management, accommodation, and return-to-work while learning directly from organizations tackling these challenges every day.
Leave with new ideas, valuable peer connections, and practical strategies you can put into action immediately.
Key Takeaways
- Understand what’s really driving attendance and disability trends in Canadian hospitals — and where the old approach is falling short.
- Benchmark your practices against healthcare peers from across Canada through structured roundtables.
- Build confidence handling complex accommodation and disability cases.
- Learn what’s working elsewhere: from the NHS’s wellbeing model to Canadian hospitals that have redesigned their programs from scratch.
- Get practical tools for faster, more sustainable return-to-work, beyond just medical clearance.
- Leave with a concrete action plan and stronger alignment across Employee Health, Disability Management, HR, and Labour Relations.
