End of the Mystery – Calculating the True Cost of Employee Absence
Abstract
The very practical issue of calculating the costs to the company of employee absence is discussed. The article is based on the research carried out by the authors of their recently published book, Managing Employee Absence for a Competitive Edge, an acronym for the seven‐step approach to controlling absence in the organisation. The “A” stands for the assessment and costing of absence, the topic of this article. The remaining steps of the ALIEDIM approach are also described to set the article in context.
