A STUDY ON EMPLOYEE ABSENTEESIM

HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

Employee absenteeism is a significant concern for organizations, as it directly impacts productivity, operational efficiency, and employee morale. Absenteeism refers to the frequent or habitual absence of employees from work, often without valid or prior justification. The causes of absenteeism are multifaceted, including health issues, family responsibilities, workplace stress, job dissatisfaction, burnout, and personal life challenges. Additionally, organizational factors such as lack of motivation, poor management, and inadequate work-life balance contribute to higher rates of absenteeism. The consequences of absenteeism extend beyond reduced productivity and financial costs to include negative effects on team dynamics and overall workplace morale. Addressing absenteeism requires the implementation of clear attendance policies, promotion of employee engagement, offering health and wellness programs, and providing support systems for personal and emotional challenges. Early intervention and fostering a positive organizational culture are crucial for mitigating absenteeism and maintaining a productive, committed workforce.
