Improving attendance and managing unplanned absenteeism

late-coming can negatively impact the productivity of a
company.

resource consulting firm called Mercer in 2010, the unplanned
absences cost approximately 5.9 percent of a company’s
payroll in United States.

4. Leave Policy to Manage Employees Attendance
Policy
• To manage attendance in an organization, it is important to have a
unambiguous leave policy and PTO (Paid time-off) policy defined and
easily accessible by the employees.
• A leave application guideline should be used, according to which an
employee should personally talk to their managers about their leave.
Application
• The managers listen to the reason and approve the leave if possible, else if
leave could not be approved, the managers personally tell the employees
about how the employee’s non attendance will affect the company.

5. Ways to manage employees attendance
A detailed attendance record of attendance should be
maintained for employees. These records are useful in
managing employee time and also for planning
purposes.
Sometimes, genuine issues (employee home
responsibilities) can be identified if an employee is late
regularly but is otherwise committed.
To track hourly attendance and to stop buddy punching
and managing time theft, biometric devices can be used
to track the attendance of employees.
The biometrics time clocks are the best ways to track
the time of hourly workers.
These should be integrated with live reporting and
regularization for effective management
