Member You - Cost of Presenteeism Surpasses Absenteeism
Irrespective of their size and nature most businesses face financial crunch sometime or the other in its lifecycle. These crisis situations become all the more important for small businesses because the banks and financial organizations are often ready to lend money to big business houses but not to the smaller ones. Besides, small businesses with their limited capabilities often find i

If you are looking at selling your existing business and buying another one, you may seek brokerage services from a reputed broker. They offer such services for certain fees that depend on the final sale or purchase price of the business and its size. Besides fixed fees, some brokers also take commissions from their clients. If the transaction is considerably large, the scope of negotia
Employee “illness” can be grouped into five different categories. The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) breaks down the impact in this way:
1. Personal illnesses account for 35%
2. Family issues make up 21%
3. Personal needs combine for 18%
4. An entitlement mentality accounts for 14%
5. Stress makes up the final 12%
The SHRM figures refer to absenteeism alone, therefore may not be applicable in the same percentages to presenteeism. However some presenteeism will fall in each of the categories. This occurs when, for example, an employee has family issues to deal with however they do not feel the entire day needs to be taken off of work. They will make the necessary phone calls to resolve the family issues on company time. In the case of the entitlement mentality, when employees see other employees taking long lunches or breaks or making personal phone calls on company time they feel they are also entitled to do the same.
It is important to note that in some cases presenteeism contributes to the cost of absenteeism. This occurs when an employee is contagious and spreads germs to other employees in the workplace. These newly infected employees will elect to deal with their illness through either absenteeism or presenteeism.
A likely culprit in the increase of presenteeism is a lack of “no-fault” sick time. No-fault sick time refers to allowing employees to take their sick time without having to provide an explanation of why the time is taken. This reduces the amount of presenteeism as employees no longer feel they must act sick to qualify for a sick day. However once an employee begins to run out of sick time, or is only allowed minimal sick time during the year, presenteeism becomes a manner of choice when dealing with the five areas identified by SHRM.

Selling your business note for a lump sum is a viable option if you need fast money from your business. For most note holders, the game plan is simple: sell the company and then get paid monthly until it is paid off. It is a stable scheme, but some people cannot wait the entire term to receive their money. If you are one of them, why not cash in your business note instead? Here’s how to

According to Multicultural Business Council (MBC), a cultural empowerment organization based near Detroit, Michigan, absenteeism policies are creating specific cultures within the larger corporate culture. When an employee changes jobs from a company that has a restrictive absenteeism policy to a company with a less restrictive absenteeism policy, they will quickly learn to adapt to the new culture. However, employees moving in the opposite direction, from less restrictive to more restrictive absenteeism policies will take longer to adopt to the culture of the company.
It seems an entitlement mentality is a key player as employees look at sick pay policies at their company versus the policies at companies have previously worked with or have friends or family working for. Understanding the motivational factors of a team of employees can reduce the negative impact from presenteeism and absenteeism.
