On any given day, approximately three percent of employees are absent from work. The actual cost of absenteeism, however, is very difficult to determine. Statistics state that only a third of absences are due to employee illness and two thirds are due to other factors. For employers, unscheduled absences are the most costly in terms of employee benefits, employee overtime, and loss of production.

Approaches used to reduce absenteeism range from strict control programs to no control programs whatsoever. There is, however, no single approach for reducing absences in all workplace situations. This seminar is designed for human resources professionals, general managers, production managers, and anyone who wants to learn more about controlling absenteeism and increasing company profitability.
