How does GoodShape support HR teams?
GoodShape empowers HR teams to drive employee wellbeing and productivity
In today’s fast-paced and ever-evolving workplace, HR teams are under immense pressure to not only manage employee absence but also to foster a culture of wellbeing and engagement. GoodShape’s innovative absence management and wellbeing platform is designed to support HR professionals in meeting these challenges head-on, providing tools and insights that streamline processes, reduce costs, and improve employee outcomes. Here’s how GoodShape empowers HR teams to thrive:
1. Real-time absence tracking for immediate action
One of the biggest hurdles for HR teams is maintaining up-to-date, actionable information about employee absence. The GoodShape platform provides real-time visibility into absence trends, enabling HR professionals to identify issues as they arise and proactively intervene. Whether it’s tracking short-term sick days or identifying patterns of long-term absence, HR teams can make timely decisions that keep operations running smoothly.
This high level of transparency ensures that HR teams can:
-
Monitor and manage absence across departments with ease
-
Proactively address potential absenteeism spikes
-
Access instant reporting to share with senior leadership and justify investments
2. Actionable insights to shape wellbeing strategies
GoodShape doesn’t just track absence, it transforms data into actionable insights. By analysing trends and patterns, HR teams can gain a deeper understanding of the root causes of absence within their organisation. This intelligence allows them to:
-
Develop targeted wellbeing initiatives
-
Reduce absenteeism through preventative measures
-
Benchmark performance against industry standards
For example, if data reveals that stress-related absences are on the rise, HR teams can introduce mental health support initiatives or offer tailored training for line managers.
3. Streamlined processes to save time and resources
Administrative tasks related to absence management can drain valuable HR resources. GoodShape’s platform simplifies these processes by providing:
-
A centralised system for absence reporting and management
-
Dynamic return-to-work templates to support employee reintegration
-
Automated workflows that reduce manual effort
This efficiency allows HR teams to spend less time on paperwork and more time on strategic initiatives that drive business results.
4. 24/7 support for employees
Employee wellbeing is at the heart of GoodShape’s mission. The platform offers employees access to round-the-clock support, including:
-
Self-care wellbeing content and resources accessible through the GoodShape App
-
Seamless referrals to external support services, such as counselling or physiotherapy
- A 24/7 nurse helpline for immediate medical advice through our GoodShapeHealth offering
This ensures that employees feel supported and cared for, which in turn fosters loyalty and engagement. For HR teams, it means fewer barriers to helping employees return to work quickly and safely.
5. Customisable reporting for strategic planning
HR teams need robust data to inform decision-making. GoodShape’s platform offers 60+ in-depth, customisable reports that provide valuable insights into:
-
Absence rates by department, team, or role
-
The effectiveness of existing wellbeing strategies
- Manager compliance with absence-related processes
These reports enable HR to present clear, data-backed recommendations to senior leaders and build a compelling case for investment in wellbeing initiatives.
6. Support from dedicated Client Success Managers
We understand that HR teams can’t do it all alone. That’s why every GoodShape client is paired with a dedicated Client Success Manager who provides ongoing support, guidance, and expertise. Whether it’s setting up the platform, interpreting data, or developing new strategies, with GoodShape, HR teams have a trusted partner to help them succeed.
7. A holistic approach to employee wellbeing
GoodShape’s services go beyond absence management to address the broader picture of employee health and wellbeing. From mental health support to tailored return-to-work plans, HR teams have the tools to create a culture that values employee wellness as a key driver of organisational success.
