The following 10 points will be helpful in controlling absenteeism in the
 workplace.


  1. Determine whether the employee notified you as soon as possible that an
absence was     necessary.
  2. Record the absence in an attendance record book or printed form.
  3. Analyze the absence through in depth discussion; don't accept phony
excuses.
  4. Decide through your analysis which of the four types of absentee you
are dealing with.
  5. Maintaining an alternative work plan to ensure smooth production when
absences do occur.
  6. Confront every absence so that the employees know that you consider
absence serious.
  7. Keep a record of added costs that resulted from absenteeism.
  8. Initiate a satisfactory program to avoid absenteeism due to
accidents.
  9. Discuss the moral value of "legitimate absences" only, with your
subordinates.
  10. Remember that even the most abusive violator can have an absence that
is legitimate.
