Controlling absenteeism can help curb hospitals' costs. 1978

S M Snyder

Absenteeism involves costs associated with sick pay, overtime pay, decreased employee productivity, and less effective patient care. Hospital management and supervisors must minimize absenteeism and its costs by thoroughly recording and evaluating employees' attendance patterns, counseling and disciplining employees when necessary, and applying policies on attendance with consistency.
