/here are t#o types of absenteeism, each of #hich re-uires a different type of approach

Innocent absenteeism refers to employees #ho are absent for reasons beyond
their controlN li$e sic$ness and injury Innocent absenteeism is not culpable #hich
means that it is blameless In a labour relations conte.t this means that it cannot be
remedied or treated by disciplinary measures
9- Cu"p!b"e Ab'eteei'm
>ulpable absenteeism refers to employees #ho are absent #ithout authori,ation
for reasons, #hich are #ithin their control Eor instance, an employee #ho is on sic$
lea%e e%en though he&she is not sic$, and it can be pro%en that the employee #as not
sic$, is guilty of culpable absenteeism
M!!8i8 Ab'eteei'm,
9ranting that certain amount of absenteeism is una%oidable, #hat could be done
to control and minimi,e its occurrence
Laid *10;?3 reasons, that most of the #or$ers need care and a belongingness,
#hich they recei%ed earlier in joint familiesN the industrial economy is not able to offer
the same to them >hand and pra$ash *10?A3 based on their study recommended that
organi,ations should regulate the sic$ lea%e by strictly implementing the employee
insurance scheme and establishing their o#n fully e-uipped dispensaries and hospitals
:reedharan 4air *10?A3 specifies the $ind of education that should be pro%ided to
#or$ers According to him, most #or$ers are not a#are of company policies on lea%e
rules A $no#ledge and a#areness of these polices can go a long #ay in curbing the
problem of absenteeism "e suggests introduction of lea%e bonus, encashment of
a%ailable lea%e, issuing attendance certificates, a#ard for regular #or$ers, and

promotions based on attendance are other important measures for managing
absenteeism
6rishnamurthy *10?23 suggests impro%ing the en%ironment of #or$ by
pro%iding recreational facilitiesN subside in food items, and safety a#areness
Bhatia *10@A3 feels that instead of drastic clamp do#n, a gradual impro%ement
in controlling the absence is more desirable
/he follo#ing conclusions can be dra#n from these recommendations
EduC!tio !d Cou'e""i8, /he organi,ation should ma$e an earnest attempt to
disseminate the policies on absenteeism to each and e%ery #or$er /hey should be
educated on the need for attending #or$ and the conse-uences for not doing so Bhatia

acti%ities help reducing the high absenteeism :afe #or$ing conditions, control on
accidents and generally a supporti%e en%ironment goes a long #ay to attract and retain
the #or$er on the job
ICeti?e' SC%eme', An organi,ation can manage its absenteeism by introducing an
incenti%e scheme Attendance, lea%e encashment, recognition of attendance either by
