A ready reckoner for CFOs and HR directors

The Cost of Not Knowing.

Workforce pressure already has a line in your accounts. It is spread across absence, quiet attrition and an undocumented duty of care, so it never appears as one number. Put in your own figures and this page does the arithmetic, openly, so you can check every step.

Everything is calculated in your browser. Nothing is stored and no email is asked for.

Your figures

Defaults are deliberately middle of the road. Replace them with your own; the results update as you type.

Days lost
€0 a year

What absence already costs in salary alone, before cover, overtime or missed work is counted.

People lost
€0 a year

What replacing leavers costs in recruitment, onboarding and lost knowledge, at your turnover rate.

What a shift is worth
€0 a year

If better visibility and earlier support moved absence and turnover by 15%, this is what stays in the organisation, every year.

And the claim you hope never lands
Your figure once you enter one

Under Section 8 of the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 the duty of care covers psychological as well as physical harm. A documented monthly evidence trail helps demonstrate that duty is being taken seriously. Without one, that question is much harder to answer.

What this page does not do

It does not use industry averages dressed up as your numbers, and it does not put a price on the programme, because a figure with no conversation behind it would tell you very little. The arithmetic above is deliberately simple and deliberately conservative: salary only, no employer overheads, no cost of cover, no client impact.

If the numbers are worth a conversation, the next step worth taking is to put them beside the programme on a call, where we can also show you how The Monthly Read makes the shift measurable rather than hoped for.

Bring these numbers to Your First Read.

A 30-minute call with the clinical lead, comparing your numbers with what we see across sectors. Nothing to prepare, free and no obligation. Afterwards you get Your First Read, a one-page written view of where you stand, and it is yours either way.
