 PROBLEM STATEMENT:

         Important characteristics of Indian workers are that, they are in the habit of
 abstaining from work compared to workers of other countries. The rate of Absenteeism
 ranges from 4.3% to 44.8%.It also varies with the seasons in the year, the highest being
 during May, June of every year. The main reasons for absenteeism are sickness,
 accidents or maternity. These factors accounted for about 1.1 to 6.6%. Social and
 religious causes as high as 1.7% to14.2 %.Other causes like visiting villages for
 attending litigation,    rest, and recreation account for 0.1% to17.5 % of total
 absenteeism. Absenteeism is directly effects on the progress of the country and as such
 the companies are facing a downward trend due to recession and all that are involved in
 the process are to be looked into. So I have selected this work at GO GO

                              2.1 INDUSTRY PROFILE

         Indian textile industry can be compared to a pyramid of ice floating in water.
 “Only one tenth of the pyramid is visible, in the form of large textile mills in the
 organized sector. The body of the textile pyramid consists of the decentralized power
 loom and handloom sectors, which account for the bulk of India’s production. The base
 of the pyramid is the downstream apparel and household textile sectors. The entire
 pyramid employs about fifteen million (as in 2007, it was estimated 20 million) workers-
 most of whom work in small firms in the decentralized sector”. Indeed, the structure of
 the Indian textile industry is as varied and deep-rooted as is its reform, challenging and
 daunting Indian textile and clothing industry is the largest foreign exchange earner for the
 country, and employs over 20 million people, second only to agriculture. India cannot
 afford to let this industry grow sick. That would be nothing short of a human tragedy.
 Until the era of globalization liberalization was launched at the opening of the current
 decade, the domestic market was a protected turf, and a seller’s market.


         However, with the forces of globalization having been unleashed, and accentuated
 by the coming into force of the WTO in 1995, there is no looking back. The world has
 changed and is changing. In the borderless world, only the fittest would survive. Indian
 textile and clothing industry is beset with several shortcomings, in no small measure due
 to the lop-sided govt. policy in the post-1947 India.


         But now it must change. It must change if it is not be blows away by the global
 market forces, both in the international market as well as by imports in the domestic
 territory.


              And contrary to the common refrain of the industrialists in textile industry, the
 onus of infusing a refreshing change lies more on the industry (firms) than on the
 government. This is not to be little the significant role of a facilitator that govt alone can
 provide. But competitive strategy originates at the level of the firm. No amount of
 macroeconomic change can make the firms in the industry competitive. The govt. must
 evolve a national policy, which can act as a general guideline for the firms to define their
 unique positioning strategy. Given the national environment, the firms must control their
 own destiny, or someone else will.

                       3.1 LITERATURE REVIEW:

         Human Resource Management function concerned with hiring, motivating and
 maintaining people in an organization. It focuses on people in organizations. Human
 Resource views people as an important source or asset to be used for the benefit of
 organizations, employees and the society. It is emerging as a distinct philosophy of
 management aiming at policies that promote mutuality – mutual goals, mutual respects,
 mutual rewards and mutual responsibilities. The belief is that policies of mutuality will
 elicit commitment which in turn will yield both better economic performance and greater
 human resource development.


 3.1 1 Introduction to Human Resource Management:
 Modern organizational setting is characterized by constant changes relating to
 environment factors and human resources. As regards environmental factors, we find
 changes in the operating organizational structure, the networking procedures, customs or
 norms and the economic, political and social patterns in which organizations exist.
 Moreover, there is constant change in human resources. New individuals are being
 employed with their new ideas and expectations while the existing workforce is
 constantly changing vis-à-vis ideas, attitudes and values.
 Although the changes may provide solution to some problems, it may create several new
 ones. There is an urgent need to understand these problems, anticipate them and to find
 solutions to them. The responsibility to find out solutions to these problems lies with
 every manager who has to be prepared to deal with different changes effectively through
 educational and developmental programs. Obviously, every manager is responsible for
 management of human resources of course with the advice and help of personnel
 department. Management of human resources is the essence of being a manager who has
 to get things done through others. Specifically, his task relates to leading, mobilizing and
 directing the efforts of people without which he can be a technician but not a manager.
 Thus, every manager has to develop and maintain his competence in managing human
 resources which have assumed utmost significance in modern organizations.The term Job
 Satisfaction is of almost significance from the standpoint of employee morale. It refers to
 employee’s general attitude towards his work.Lock defines work Satisfaction as a
 pleasurable or positive emotional state resulting from the appraisal of one’s work or work
 experience. The extent that a person’s work fulfils his dominant need and is consistent

 with his expectations and values, the work will be satisfying.The job satisfaction factors
 which can have influence on attitudes, these can be considered as motives. The
 relationship between man and work has always attracted the philosophers, scientists and
 novelists. A major part of man’s life is spent work. Work is a social reality and social
 expectation to which men seem to confirm. It not only provides status to the individual
 but also binds him, to the society.
 Job satisfaction is a persons attitude towards the job. Positive attitude towards the job are
 equivalent to job satisfaction where as negative attitude towards the job is equivalent to
 job dissatisfaction. Job satisfaction has been define variously from time to time.


 “The term job satisfaction refers to an individual’s general attitude towards his or her job,
 while a person who is dissatisfied with his or her works holds negative attitude about the
 job”
 The role of human resource management in organisations has been evolving dramatically
 in recent times. The days of Personnel Department performing clerical duties such as
 record keeping, paper pushing and file maintenance are over. HR is increasingly receiving
 attention as a critical strategic partner, assuming stunningly different, far reaching
 transformational roles and responsibilities. Taking the strategic approach to human
 resource management involves making the function of managing human assets the most
 important priority in the organisations and integrating all human resource policies and
 programmes the frame-work of a company’s strategy. Effective utilisation of human
 resource can assist organisations in achieving competitive advantage.

 3.1 4 Evolution of Human Resource Management:


 Human Resource, a relatively new term emerged during the 1970s.Many people continue
 to refer to the discipline by its older, more traditional titles, such as personnel
 management or personal administration.


           The trend is changing. The term nowadays used in industry circle is Human
 Resource management. Coming to the evolution of HRM as a subject, it may be stated
 that concern for the welfare of workers in the management of business enterprises has
 been in existence since ages. Kutilya’s Arthashastra states that there existed a sound base
 for systematic management of resources during as early as the 4th century BC. These
 processes took momentum only when government took active measures during resent
 past by various rules and regulations under Industrial Dispute Act and related Acts.
 However the employees will have various reasons to deviate from this. When the growth
 of the industry is disturbed due to irregularity of the employees,       government showed
 interest in the operation of public and private sector enterprises and provided systematic
 procedures for regulating employer –employee relationships.


     Development of HRM in India:
     •   In 50’s, people were recruited ‘to do and die’

     •   In 60’s, concept of managing people

     •   In 70’s, realised that productivity depended on people

     •   Employees started demanding over and above their salaries

     •   Personnel department – renamed as Human resources

     •   Management theories were introduced

     •   Concepts of participative management, Kaizen, Total quality management,
         empowerment, etc,

     •   In Indian context, emotions, feelings, empathetic perceptions, and affective
         components influence people

     •   Hierarchy, status, authority, responsibility, and accountability are structural
         concepts

     •   Subordinates expect that the superior should have integrity, higher performance
         skill, commitment, guidance and leadership qualities, support and patronising
         tendencies, accessibility, wider vision, sense of empowerment, and credibility

     •   Boss expects commitment to job, integrity, competence, reliability, initiative,
         loyalty to the organisation, self-discipline, accountability and job involvement

     •   A good HRM environment ensures balanced interaction between the two set of
         expectations and harmony

     •   HRM strategies in India have to focus on better individual-organisation interface
         and greater emphasis on organisational effectiveness than on personal success

  3.2   Absenteeism:

         Employee’s presence at work place during the scheduled time is highly essential
 for the smooth running of the production process in particular and the organization in
 general. Despite the significance of their presence, employees sometime fail to report at
 the work place during the scheduled
          time. Absenteeism refers to the failure on the part of employees to report to work
 though they are scheduled to work. In other words, unauthorised absences constitute
 Absenteeism.


         Absenteeism costs money to the organization, besides reflecting employee
 dissatisfaction with the company. Like employee turnover, there is avoidable and
 unavoidable absenteeism. Absenteeism is unavoidable when the employee himself or
 herself fell sick, his or her dependence at home suddenly become unwell or there is an
 accident inside the plant. Unavoidable absenteeism is accepted by managers and is even
 sanctioned by labour laws. Foe instance, one days’ leave with wages for every 20 days of
 service is allowed by the factories Act 1948.


         Avoidable absenteeism arises because of night shifts, opportunities for
 moonlighting and earning extra income, indebtedness, lack of job security, job
 dissatisfaction and unfriendly supervision. This needs intervention by the management.


         Labour Bureau, Simla, defined the term ‘Absenteeism’ as “the failure of a worker
 to report for work when he is scheduled to work.” Labour bureau also states that
 “Absenteeism is the total man-shifts lost because of absence as a percentage of the total
 number of man-shifts scheduled to work.” According to Webster’s Dictionary,
 “Absenteeism is the practice or habit of being an ‘absence’ and an absentee is one who
 habitually stays away.”

 informing or taking permission and without applying for leave, such absenteeism is called
 as Unauthorised Absenteeism.

 absenteeism is called Wilful Absenteeism.


         Absenteeism caused by circumstances beyond once control: If an employee

 accidents or sudden sickness, such Absenteeism is called Absenteeism caused by
 circumstances beyond once control.

          activities and sometime social activities to fulfil their goals.

 3.2 5 Calculation of Absenteeism Rate:


         •   Absenteeism is computed and is expressed in terms of percentages.
         •   Absenteeism can be calculated with the help of following formula.
                                 Number of Man days lost               X 100
Absenteeism Rate =
                          Number of Man days scheduled to work
         •   Absenteeism rate can be calculated for different employees and for different
             time periods like month and year.
         •   The frequency rate reflects the incidence of absence and is usually expressed
             as the number of separate absence in a given period, irrespective of length of
             absences. The frequency rate represents the average number of absences per
             worker in a given period.
         •   Frequency rate = total no. of times in which the leave was availed/total no. of
             Man days scheduled to work x 100
         •   Severity Rate: severity is the average length of time lost per absence and is
             calculated by using the formula.
         •   Severity rate = Total no. of absent during a period / Total no. of times absent
             during that period x100
         •   A high severity rate indicates that the employee is absent for longer durations
             each time. High frequency and severity rates indicate that the employee is
             absent more frequently and for longer durations each time resulting in high
             absenteeism even in absolute terms.

         Recent studies have revealed that workers’ link with the village as a cause of
 instability in the labour force has become more or less a matter of history .Now the
 workers do have their link with the village; but they do not go there for any economic
 pursuit. They go mainly for relaxation or attending social ceremonies and spending long
 holidays. As observed by the labour investigation committee “the factory workers
 retained their contacts with the villages more for rest and recuperation than for attending
 to cultivation. The workers have almost lost their economic interest in land and have
 adhered to their way of life or occupation they have chosen.


         The factual survey conducted by the Committee has shown that greater
 concentration of the working class in industrial areas has led to the rise of an industrial
 proletariat in most cities. It has referred to the fact that there is a greater stability in the
 labour force in those centres where the employers have looked after their workers by
 paying them a decent living wage, providing good housing accommodation and making
 provision for pension for the future. The committee was of the view that the “village
 nexus need not to be encouraged as most of the workers are landless labourers and have
 no stake in land. The joint family and the caste are steadily deteriorating and economic
 supporters of the workers. At this present juncture, the workers are in a transitional stage
 in which they are gradually losing the support of the village and have not been able to
 secure a firm footing in industrial areas. In view of this, to turn back the clock and either
 to prevent the worker from coming to the town or to force him back to the village would
 be a step in the wrong direction. The committee further observed “
         “Workers were prepared to stick to the town to a greater extent than before, to
 fight for their legitimate rights and to seek livelihood in urban rather than rural areas. The
 stabilization of the labour force in industrial towns was a matter of compulsion rather than
 choice.” The committee, therefore emphasised that the “stability of labour can be brought
 about by improvement in working and living conditions, generally in industries in which

 such workers are called upon to work and to provide measures of social security for the
 workers.




         The national Commission on Labour has pointed out “Over the last 25 years, the
 trend towards the stabilization of industrial labour has been further strengthened. A
 worker today is far more urban in taste and outlook than his predecessor. The idyllic
 notion of a village nexus has receded to the background owing to the positive measures
 undertaken in the interest of industrial labour. Even in the more distant plantations; settled
 labour is more in evidence now.”


         The national Commission further observes as “Industry expanded include a wide
 variety of skilled and unskilled jobs, industrial work ceased to be the monopoly, of
 migrants from villages. Young persons in the urban families, traditionally averse to
 accepting factory environment have been seeking employment there. Besides when
 employers began offering incentives for regularity and productivity even rural migrants
 reduced the frequency an duration of their visits to villages. As measures for providing
 minimum facilities and social security began to be undertaken, workers were increasingly
 attracted by them and lack of commitment became a less serious problem.


        Studies in Bombay, Delhi and Jamshedpur show that the earlier migrants have still
 an urge to go back to the village; but the latter ones show increasing commitment to urban
 life and factory work .The age of worker is also a factor for urban attraction works more
 strongly on the young.


         The commission conclude “A vast majority of the workers in cities are committed
 to factory jobs. In other industries a second or even a third generation of workers has
 emerged. A self –generating working class with its roots in industrial environment in
 which a worker is born and bred is growing in strength.”

 3.2 7 Measure to minimise absenteeism:


         Absenteeism affects the organization from multiple angles. It severely affects the
 production process and the business process. The effect of unauthorised Absenteeism is
 more compared to other type of Absenteeism. However it would be difficult to
 completely avoid Absenteeism. Managers stood take steps to remove causes of
 absenteeism. On the positive side managers must create work environment which will
 make the employees realise that it make sense to the work in the factory rather than
 staying at home and waste their time.


 The following measures are useful in controlling or minimising absenteeism:


     •   Selecting the employee by testing thoroughly regarding their aspirations, value
         systems, responsibility and sensitiveness.
     •   Adopting a humanistic approach in dealing with the personal problems of
         employees
     •   Following a proactive approach in identifying and redressing employee
         grievances.
     •   Providing hygienic working condition
     •   Providing welfare measures and fringe benefits, balancing the need         of the
         employees and ability of the organisation.
     •   Providing high wages and allowances based on the organizational financial
         position.
     •   Improving the communication network .
     •   Providing leave facility based on the needs of the employees according to
         organisational standards.
     •   Providing safety and health measures
     •   Providing cordial human relations and industrial relations
     •   Educating the workers regarding health and hygiene.
     •   Granting leaves and financial assistance liberally in case of sickness of employee
         and his/her family members.
     •   Regularity to be encouraged through incentives.

  • 8. Employees Absenteeism 2.1 INDUSTRY PROFILE Indian textile industry can be compared to a pyramid of ice floating in water. “Only one tenth of the pyramid is visible, in the form of large textile mills in the organized sector. The body of the textile pyramid consists of the decentralized power loom and handloom sectors, which account for the bulk of India’s production. The base of the pyramid is the downstream apparel and household textile sectors. The entire pyramid employs about fifteen million (as in 2007, it was estimated 20 million) workers- most of whom work in small firms in the decentralized sector”. Indeed, the structure of the Indian textile industry is as varied and deep-rooted as is its reform, challenging and daunting Indian textile and clothing industry is the largest foreign exchange earner for the country, and employs over 20 million people, second only to agriculture. India cannot afford to let this industry grow sick. That would be nothing short of a human tragedy. Until the era of globalization liberalization was launched at the opening of the current decade, the domestic market was a protected turf, and a seller’s market. However, with the forces of globalization having been unleashed, and accentuated by the coming into force of the WTO in 1995, there is no looking back. The world has changed and is changing. In the borderless world, only the fittest would survive. Indian textile and clothing industry is beset with several shortcomings, in no small measure due to the lop-sided govt. policy in the post-1947 India. But now it must change. It must change if it is not be blows away by the global market forces, both in the international market as well as by imports in the domestic territory. And contrary to the common refrain of the industrialists in textile industry, the onus of infusing a refreshing change lies more on the industry (firms) than on the government. This is not to be little the significant role of a facilitator that govt alone can provide. But competitive strategy originates at the level of the firm. No amount of macroeconomic change can make the firms in the industry competitive. The govt. must evolve a national policy, which can act as a general guideline for the firms to define their unique positioning strategy. Given the national environment, the firms must control their own destiny, or someone else will. H.R. institute of higher education, Hassan 8

  • 31. Employees Absenteeism 3.1 LITERATURE REVIEW: Human Resource Management function concerned with hiring, motivating and maintaining people in an organization. It focuses on people in organizations. Human Resource views people as an important source or asset to be used for the benefit of organizations, employees and the society. It is emerging as a distinct philosophy of management aiming at policies that promote mutuality – mutual goals, mutual respects, mutual rewards and mutual responsibilities. The belief is that policies of mutuality will elicit commitment which in turn will yield both better economic performance and greater human resource development. 3.1 1 Introduction to Human Resource Management: Modern organizational setting is characterized by constant changes relating to environment factors and human resources. As regards environmental factors, we find changes in the operating organizational structure, the networking procedures, customs or norms and the economic, political and social patterns in which organizations exist. Moreover, there is constant change in human resources. New individuals are being employed with their new ideas and expectations while the existing workforce is constantly changing vis-à-vis ideas, attitudes and values. Although the changes may provide solution to some problems, it may create several new ones. There is an urgent need to understand these problems, anticipate them and to find solutions to them. The responsibility to find out solutions to these problems lies with every manager who has to be prepared to deal with different changes effectively through educational and developmental programs. Obviously, every manager is responsible for management of human resources of course with the advice and help of personnel department. Management of human resources is the essence of being a manager who has to get things done through others. Specifically, his task relates to leading, mobilizing and directing the efforts of people without which he can be a technician but not a manager. Thus, every manager has to develop and maintain his competence in managing human resources which have assumed utmost significance in modern organizations.The term Job Satisfaction is of almost significance from the standpoint of employee morale. It refers to employee’s general attitude towards his work.Lock defines work Satisfaction as a pleasurable or positive emotional state resulting from the appraisal of one’s work or work experience. The extent that a person’s work fulfils his dominant need and is consistent H.R. institute of higher education, Hassan 31
  • 32. Employees Absenteeism with his expectations and values, the work will be satisfying.The job satisfaction factors which can have influence on attitudes, these can be considered as motives. The relationship between man and work has always attracted the philosophers, scientists and novelists. A major part of man’s life is spent work. Work is a social reality and social expectation to which men seem to confirm. It not only provides status to the individual but also binds him, to the society. Job satisfaction is a persons attitude towards the job. Positive attitude towards the job are equivalent to job satisfaction where as negative attitude towards the job is equivalent to job dissatisfaction. Job satisfaction has been define variously from time to time. “The term job satisfaction refers to an individual’s general attitude towards his or her job, while a person who is dissatisfied with his or her works holds negative attitude about the job” The role of human resource management in organisations has been evolving dramatically in recent times. The days of Personnel Department performing clerical duties such as record keeping, paper pushing and file maintenance are over. HR is increasingly receiving attention as a critical strategic partner, assuming stunningly different, far reaching transformational roles and responsibilities. Taking the strategic approach to human resource management involves making the function of managing human assets the most important priority in the organisations and integrating all human resource policies and programmes the frame-work of a company’s strategy. Effective utilisation of human resource can assist organisations in achieving competitive advantage. H.R. institute of higher education, Hassan 32
  • 33. Employees Absenteeism 3.1 2 Definition: Human resource management is a management functions that helps manager’s recruit, select train and develop members for an organization. It focuses on the people in organizations According to Michael J . Jucius defined as “the field of management which has to do with planning, organizing, directing and controlling the functions of procuring ,developing .maintaining and utilizing the labour force . , such that the – 1. Objectives of the company is established are attained economically and effec- tively 2. Objectives of all levels of personnel are served to the highest possible degree, and 3. Objectives of society are dually considered and served”. HRM can be defined as managing (planning, organizing ,directing and controlling )the function s of employing ,developing and compensating human resource resulting in the creation and development of human relations with a view to contribute proportionately due to them) to the organizational ,individual and social goals. Human Resource Management function concerned with hiring, motivating and maintaining people in an organization. It focuses on people in organizations. Human Resource views people as an important source or asset to be used for the benefit of organizations, employees and the society. It is emerging as a distinct philosophy of management aiming at policies that promote mutuality – mutual goals, mutual respects, mutual rewards and mutual responsibilities.

  • 35. Employees Absenteeism 3.1 3 IMPORTANCE OF HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT: The importance of HRM can be discussed under three standard points: 1. Social significance: Management of personnel enhances their dignity by satisfying their social needs. This is done by: i. Providing suitable and most productive employment, which brings them psychological satisfaction. ii. Making maximum utilization of the resource in an effective manner and paying the employees a reasonable compensation in proportion to the contribution made by him. 2. Professional significance: By providing healthy working environment it promotes teamwork in the employees. This is done by: i. Marinating the dignity of the employee as a human being. ii. Providing maximum opportunities for personal dept. 3. Significance for individual enterprise : It can help the organization in accomplishing its goal by: i. Creating right attitude among employees through effective motivation. ii. Securing willing communication operation for achieving goals fulfilling their own social and other psychological needs like love, affection, esteem etc. H.R. institute of higher education, Hassan 35
  • 36. Employees Absenteeism 3.1 4 Evolution of Human Resource Management: Human Resource, a relatively new term emerged during the 1970s.Many people continue to refer to the discipline by its older, more traditional titles, such as personnel management or personal administration. The trend is changing. The term nowadays used in industry circle is Human Resource management. Coming to the evolution of HRM as a subject, it may be stated that concern for the welfare of workers in the management of business enterprises has been in existence since ages. Kutilya’s Arthashastra states that there existed a sound base for systematic management of resources during as early as the 4th century BC. These processes took momentum only when government took active measures during resent past by various rules and regulations under Industrial Dispute Act and related Acts. However the employees will have various reasons to deviate from this. When the growth of the industry is disturbed due to irregularity of the employees, government showed interest in the operation of public and private sector enterprises and provided systematic procedures for regulating employer –employee relationships. Development of HRM in India: • In 50’s, people were recruited ‘to do and die’ • In 60’s, concept of managing people • In 70’s, realised that productivity depended on people • Employees started demanding over and above their salaries • Personnel department – renamed as Human resources • Management theories were introduced • Concepts of participative management, Kaizen, Total quality management, empowerment, etc, • In Indian context, emotions, feelings, empathetic perceptions, and affective components influence people • Hierarchy, status, authority, responsibility, and accountability are structural concepts H.R. institute of higher education, Hassan 36

Social significance: management of personnel enhances their dignity by satisfying their social needs.

All major activities in the working life of a worker from time of his or her entry into an organization until he or she leaves – come under the purview of HRM. Specifically,the activities included are HR planning , job analysis and design , recruitment and selection, orientation and placement , training and development , performance appraisal and job evaluation , employee remuneration , motivation communication , welfare, safety and health, industrial relations and the like.

  • 42. Employees Absenteeism 3.2 Absenteeism: Employee’s presence at work place during the scheduled time is highly essential for the smooth running of the production process in particular and the organization in general. Despite the significance of their presence, employees sometime fail to report at the work place during the scheduled time. Absenteeism refers to the failure on the part of employees to report to work though they are scheduled to work. In other words, unauthorised absences constitute Absenteeism. Absenteeism costs money to the organization, besides reflecting employee dissatisfaction with the company. Like employee turnover, there is avoidable and unavoidable absenteeism. Absenteeism is unavoidable when the employee himself or herself fell sick, his or her dependence at home suddenly become unwell or there is an accident inside the plant. Unavoidable absenteeism is accepted by managers and is even sanctioned by labour laws. Foe instance, one days’ leave with wages for every 20 days of service is allowed by the factories Act 1948. Avoidable absenteeism arises because of night shifts, opportunities for moonlighting and earning extra income, indebtedness, lack of job security, job dissatisfaction and unfriendly supervision. This needs intervention by the management. Labour Bureau, Simla, defined the term ‘Absenteeism’ as “the failure of a worker to report for work when he is scheduled to work.” Labour bureau also states that “Absenteeism is the total man-shifts lost because of absence as a percentage of the total number of man-shifts scheduled to work.” According to Webster’s Dictionary, “Absenteeism is the practice or habit of being an ‘absence’ and an absentee is one who habitually stays away.” H.R. institute of higher education, Hassan 42
  • 43. Employees Absenteeism 3.2 1 Types of Absenteeism: Absenteeism is of 4 types: Authorised Absenteeism: If an employee absents himself from work by taking permission from his superior and applying for leave, such absenteeism is called as Authorised Absenteeism. Unauthorised Absenteeism: If an employee absents himself from work without informing or taking permission and without applying for leave, such absenteeism is called as Unauthorised Absenteeism. Wilful Absenteeism: If employee absents himself from duty wilfully such absenteeism is called Wilful Absenteeism. Absenteeism caused by circumstances beyond once control: If an employee absents him from duty owing to circumstances beyond his/her control like involvement in accidents or sudden sickness, such Absenteeism is called Absenteeism caused by circumstances beyond once control.

The rate of absenteeism is the lowest on pay day; it increases considerably on the days following the payment of wages and bonus. Absenteeism generally high among the workers below 25 years of age and those of above 40 years of age. The rate of absenteeism varies from department to department within an organization. Generally it is high in production department. Absenteeism in traditional industries is seasonal in character. H.R. institute of higher education, Hassan 44

Sick and the old  Entrepreneurs: This class of absentees consider that their jobs are very small for their total interest and personal goals. They engage themselves in other economic activities and sometime social activities to fulfil their goals.  The status Seekers: These types of absentees enjoy or perceive a higher ascribed social status and are keen on maintaining it.  The Epicureans: This class of absentees do not like to take up the jobs which demand initiative and responsibilities, discipline and discomfort. They wish to have money, power, and status but are unwilling to work for their achievements.  Family oriented: This type of absentees are often identified with the family activities  The sick and the Old: These categories of absentees are mostly unhealthy with a week constitution or old people.

  • 47. Employees Absenteeism 3.2 5 Calculation of Absenteeism Rate: • Absenteeism is computed and is expressed in terms of percentages. • Absenteeism can be calculated with the help of following formula. Number of Man days lost X 100 Absenteeism Rate = Number of Man days scheduled to work • Absenteeism rate can be calculated for different employees and for different time periods like month and year. • The frequency rate reflects the incidence of absence and is usually expressed as the number of separate absence in a given period, irrespective of length of absences. The frequency rate represents the average number of absences per worker in a given period. • Frequency rate = total no. of times in which the leave was availed/total no. of Man days scheduled to work x 100 • Severity Rate: severity is the average length of time lost per absence and is calculated by using the formula. • Severity rate = Total no. of absent during a period / Total no. of times absent during that period x100 • A high severity rate indicates that the employee is absent for longer durations each time. High frequency and severity rates indicate that the employee is absent more frequently and for longer durations each time resulting in high absenteeism even in absolute terms.

  • 48. Employees Absenteeism 3.2 6 Recent Trends: Recent studies have revealed that workers’ link with the village as a cause of instability in the labour force has become more or less a matter of history .Now the workers do have their link with the village; but they do not go there for any economic pursuit. They go mainly for relaxation or attending social ceremonies and spending long holidays. As observed by the labour investigation committee “the factory workers retained their contacts with the villages more for rest and recuperation than for attending to cultivation. The workers have almost lost their economic interest in land and have adhered to their way of life or occupation they have chosen. The factual survey conducted by the Committee has shown that greater concentration of the working class in industrial areas has led to the rise of an industrial proletariat in most cities. It has referred to the fact that there is a greater stability in the labour force in those centres where the employers have looked after their workers by paying them a decent living wage, providing good housing accommodation and making provision for pension for the future. The committee was of the view that the “village nexus need not to be encouraged as most of the workers are landless labourers and have no stake in land. The joint family and the caste are steadily deteriorating and economic supporters of the workers. At this present juncture, the workers are in a transitional stage in which they are gradually losing the support of the village and have not been able to secure a firm footing in industrial areas. In view of this, to turn back the clock and either to prevent the worker from coming to the town or to force him back to the village would be a step in the wrong direction. The committee further observed “ “Workers were prepared to stick to the town to a greater extent than before, to fight for their legitimate rights and to seek livelihood in urban rather than rural areas. The stabilization of the labour force in industrial towns was a matter of compulsion rather than choice.” The committee, therefore emphasised that the “stability of labour can be brought about by improvement in working and living conditions, generally in industries in which H.R. institute of higher education, Hassan 48
  • 49. Employees Absenteeism such workers are called upon to work and to provide measures of social security for the workers. The national Commission on Labour has pointed out “Over the last 25 years, the trend towards the stabilization of industrial labour has been further strengthened. A worker today is far more urban in taste and outlook than his predecessor. The idyllic notion of a village nexus has receded to the background owing to the positive measures undertaken in the interest of industrial labour. Even in the more distant plantations; settled labour is more in evidence now.” The national Commission further observes as “Industry expanded include a wide variety of skilled and unskilled jobs, industrial work ceased to be the monopoly, of migrants from villages. Young persons in the urban families, traditionally averse to accepting factory environment have been seeking employment there. Besides when employers began offering incentives for regularity and productivity even rural migrants reduced the frequency an duration of their visits to villages. As measures for providing minimum facilities and social security began to be undertaken, workers were increasingly attracted by them and lack of commitment became a less serious problem. Studies in Bombay, Delhi and Jamshedpur show that the earlier migrants have still an urge to go back to the village; but the latter ones show increasing commitment to urban life and factory work .The age of worker is also a factor for urban attraction works more strongly on the young. The commission conclude “A vast majority of the workers in cities are committed to factory jobs. In other industries a second or even a third generation of workers has emerged. A self –generating working class with its roots in industrial environment in which a worker is born and bred is growing in strength.” H.R. institute of higher education, Hassan 49
  • 50. Employees Absenteeism 3.2 7 Measure to minimise absenteeism: Absenteeism affects the organization from multiple angles. It severely affects the production process and the business process. The effect of unauthorised Absenteeism is more compared to other type of Absenteeism. However it would be difficult to completely avoid Absenteeism.
