Non-Occupational Absence:
The System No One Built™
Most organizations have a process for what happens after a disability claim begins.
Far fewer have a process for what happens before one begins.
There may be an opportunity to begin thinking differently.
The Reality
Every organization has processes to respond when an employee becomes unable to work.​
-
Disability management
-
Return-to-work
-
Accommodation
-
Recovery
These systems are essential but they all begin after disability has already become visible.
What exists before that?
A Different Executive Question
Most non-occupational absences don't begin as absences.
They begin as something else.
​
-
A conversation
-
A change
-
A pattern
-
A concern
-
A decision
Perhaps the more important question is not how organizations respond to disability - but what they might be able to recognize before disability becomes visible.
About Lucie
For more than three decades, I have worked with organizations navigating occupational health, disability management, and workforce challenges.
Over time, one question continued to emerge:
What should an organization be able to recognize before a non-occupational absence becomes a disability claim?
That question became the foundation for Non-Occupational Absence: The System No One Built™.
