Disability Management in Practice—Prevention: A Game-Changer at Ubisoft

Prevention: A Game-Changer at Ubisoft is the one in a series of case studies that feature organizations and their absence and disability management practices. The organizations featured in these profiles are a diverse group, representing different industries, regions, and sizes from across Canada. Each organization has a unique approach to managing absenteeism and is at a different stage in the development of its disability management program. For example, at Ubisoft, the world’s third-largest independent video game publisher, a key focus of the absence and disability management program is health promotion and disability prevention. In addition, the company takes a collaborative approach to disability management, and the success of its disability management program is due, in part, to employee feedback. Aligned with the company’s philosophy of trust and respect, senior management operates from the premise that employees are passionate about their work and want to do their best.
