Absence is one of the most persistent problems affecting productivity, profitability and competitiveness. Days lost due to absence are a major drain on the economy and the competitiveness of individual organisations. All companies must have a comprehensive and continuing absence management policy in an effort to confront the issue. However, dealing with staff who have an attendance problem can be a problematic issue which tests the skills of the line manager and the HR practitioner.
