Integrated Benefits Institute Releases Research on True Cost of Absence for Employers
Date:5/5/2008

the flexibility of

their absence response, staffing decisions, output requirements and

compensation program.

-- While some employers have trained replacement staff standing by, others

simply lose revenue from not delivering the product. Normally, employers

don't know who is going to be absent on a given day, so having a

replacement worker readily available isn't usually possible. For

others, not making the product is too expensive an option.

The impact of health-related lost time is a significant cost driver and competitive concern for U.S. business, and tracking and maintaining high-quality and useable data on lost time and its impact is often a daunting task for employers. IBI tools such as IBI Benchmarking and HPQ-Select help employers understand the impact of health-related productivity and where interventions can best be made.
