Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Mentoring Matters, we get personal. We recorded this one back in January 2025 and are just now sharing it, but the topic is too important to sit on. Mary and Steph both stepped away from their labs for a semester, one planned and one not, and we're talking about what that looked like, what we wish we'd done differently, and what we'd tell other mentors to have in place before they need it.We talk about the difference between preparing for a sabbatical you see coming and scrambling when a health challenge or life event pulls you away without warning. From making sure your students know who to go to, to keeping projects on track when you're not in the building, we cover the practical stuff that nobody really walks you through before it happens.Whether you're planning a leave or just want to be ready in case life has other plans, this conversation is one worth having now rather than later. Because every mentor is going to be unavailable at some point.For actionable tips and strategies for mentoring please check out The Graduate Mentor's Trail Map available in paperback and ebook!

Symptoms and sniffles are starting to keep people away from work - and employers are being warned to take care with the rules around sick leave. Hesketh Henry Employment Lawyer Jim Roberts spoke to Corin Dann.
Public health experts have noticed this latest Covid wave is worsening as fewer Kiwis are getting vaccination boosters and tests, and it's renewed debate about sick leave. Wastewater analysis from PHF Science shows that the number of cases is at the highest rate it's been for over six months, and Health NZ says there's been 50 hospitalisations and 19 deaths from the virus this week. Otago University associate professor Paula O'Kane says it's important to let sick leave accrue every year - and stay consistent as Kiwis move jobs. "It would give people access to better sick leave, it might discourage misuse of sick leave, and when people are actually sick for a longer period of time, they're better covered. So it would really help to deal with issues around people's long-term illness, for example." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

An HR consultant says the Covid-19 pandemic has changed New Zealand's attitude to taking sick leave, for the better. Sylvie Thrush Marsh from My HR spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
A new report shows New Zealanders are taking more sick leave - and that it cost the economy more than $4 billion last year. Business New Zealand chief executive Katherine Rich spoke to Corin Dann.
Those who are in work are taking more sick leave. New research by Southern Cross Health Insurance and Business NZ has found an average staff member took almost seven days of sick leave last year, up 1.4 from two years earlier. It's costing the country about $4 billion a year. Business NZ Chief Executive Katherine Rich told Mike Hosking the rise in leave entitlements has had an impact, but many employees are also doing what they've been told, staying home when sick so they don't pass it onto their coworkers. She says post Covid, people think more about their wellness and are less likely to solider on like the Codral ad. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
