Faced with absenteeism, businesses conspicuously absent – The Tribune.fr

When employees are not there, business … disillusioned. Almost two thirds (65%) of companies say they face an increased absenteeism for five years, but 81% do not provide any measures to cover absences, according to a survey of the association “absenteeism Repository” .

in detail, nearly one in two businesses that participated in the survey indicate absenteeism “moderate increase” since 2009 and 18% “strong growth” . Conversely, 14% reported a “modest decrease” and 5% “strong reduction” (12% “stable” and 4% are undecided).

The association, founded in 2013, recalls that in its previous survey in 2014, 53% of companies in total had indicated an increase in absenteeism. It stresses the need to see over time if this increase “The result of socio-economic conditions deteriorated” , or if it is a “firmly anchored phenomenon (loss of sense and the value of work) “.

Given the increased workload, 80% of companies do nothing …

to cope with these absences, companies use various devices such as hiring staff in CDD or acting or overtime, according to the survey.

However, eight out of ten companies say they provide ” no palliative measure “, leaving the extra work” absorbed by these employees. ” But for nearly two thirds of these companies, says the association, absenteeism has increased over the past five years, a “vicious circle” where “a growing workload causes in absenteeism chain reaction “

Among the measures implemented to fight against this phenomenon, companies prefer the cons-medical visits (73%), well before the talks to re-home (38%), training of managers (35%) or prevention plans (psychosocial risks, musculoskeletal disorders). However, these measures would work better than the cons-medical visits, said the association citing a “trend.”
