FMM Workshop on Navigating Employee Medical Conditions: Management and Safe Termination Practices

Managing employee medical conditions presents a complex challenge for employers, requiring a careful balance between compassion, legal compliance and organisational needs. From accommodating disabilities and chronic illnesses to handling extended medical leaves, employers must navigate a landscape shaped by employment laws, human rights considerations and operational realities. Missteps can lead to significant legal and reputational consequences. This workshop explores best practices for managing employees with medical conditions in the workplace, emphasising the importance of clear communication and a fair, documented process. It also addresses the sensitive issue of termination when it is legally permissible, how to approach it ethically and how to mitigate risk while respecting the dignity of the employee. Hence, employers and HR professionals will gain practical insights into creating supportive work environments, maintaining compliance with relevant legislation that uphold both employee rights and business continuity.

Upon completion of this workshop, participants will be able to:

Understand the provisions of the law.
Manage employee medical issues and balance compassion with compliance.
Minimise legal risk and maintain workplace morale by fostering a supportive, inclusive and transparent organizational culture.
