The follow-up process

The follow-up process differs between countries. Huma bases the process on which work schedule the employee is assigned to. At this point we support follow-up processes for Sweden and Norway.

The process is started when the employee register a Sick leave absence, and ended when the Sick leave absence is ended.

During the process, Huma will assign tasks to the responsible regarding important steps. Such as follow-up plan and dialogue meetings or reporting to Altinn/Försäkringskassan

Besides these legislation based tasks, Huma will send tasks once a week to remind them of checking up on the employee.

The tasks that are created rom the Sick leave follow-up process, will be in English. If you need them in Norwegian, you can:

  1. Click on the three dots to the right of the task.
  2. Click "Edit," translate the text into Norwegian if needed, and paste it in.



No responsible assigned

If the responsible is removed from Huma, the sick leave follow-up will be without a responsible. In this case you need to go to Sick leave settings and add a responsible.
