It was an approach that worked really well. Within a month, the IT Manager had returned to work, avoiding what could have been a lengthy absence that might even have resulted in a claim against the employer.
That's not the end of the benefits; the referral potentially saved the company around £15,000 (based on a salary of £42,000 and six months' sick pay), delays to the launch of a new IT system and, most importantly of all, the loss of a valued employee.
