Learn strategies to reduce absenteeism, improve engagement, and create policies that boost attendance and workplace productivity.
Employee absenteeism remains one of the most significant challenges for organizations, leading to increased costs, reduced productivity, and higher employee turnover. Many organizations struggle to establish clear attendance policies, track absenteeism effectively, and implement solutions that encourage employees to maintain strong attendance records. Furthermore, absenteeism is often a symptom of deeper workplace issues such as burnout, job dissatisfaction, and lack of engagement, making it critical for organizations to adopt proactive measures. This topic will provide HR professionals, managers, and organizational leaders with practical insights on how to effectively manage attendance and reduce absenteeism. Attendees will learn how to implement best practices for attendance policies, leverage data analytics for tracking absences, and develop strategies to create a positive work environment that minimizes unplanned absences. The session will also explore how absenteeism is linked to employee turnover and provide actionable solutions for improving engagement and retention. By attending this webinar, participants will gain the knowledge and tools needed to foster a workplace culture that supports strong attendance and enhances overall organizational performance.
