Employees to check in with
Active employees whose rolling 12-month Bradford Factor score has reached the "concern" or "trigger" threshold set below, highest score first.
Recent absences
Settings
Fit note threshold is the number of consecutive days after which a doctor's fit note is normally expected instead of self-certification (7 calendar days under UK rules - adjust for your own jurisdiction or policy). Bradford Factor score = episodes² × total days, over a rolling 12 months. The concern and trigger thresholds below are common starting points used by many employers, not a legal requirement - set your own to match your absence policy.
This tool flags absence patterns for you to review - it is not medical, legal or HR advice and does not replace occupational health
guidance or your organisation's own absence management policy. Always apply thresholds consistently and fairly, and take independent
advice before acting on a flagged score.
