From Reactive to Strategic: How to Mature Your Leave Program

If your leave program still runs on spreadsheets and institutional knowledge, or even a solution that isn’t working out, you’re not alone, and you’re not stuck. In this webinar, AbsenceSoft founder and Senior Advisor Seth Turner walks HR and benefits leaders through the Leave Management Maturity Model: a practical framework for understanding where your program stands today and what it takes to move it forward. Whether you’re managing leave out of a shared inbox or ready to take your program to the next level, this session offers a clear roadmap for building something more sustainable, compliant, and employee-centered.

Key Takeaways:

• Identify which of the four maturity stages describes your program today.
• Understand what meaningful progress looks like across people, process, and technology.
• Learn why integrating accommodations into leave management reduces risk and improves outcomes.
• Discover how mature programs use data to inform workforce strategy, not just track cases.
