Abstract: | This field study provided empirical evidence for the effects of absence culture on individual absenteeism among employees (N equals 264) within five clerical units. Absence culture was derived from the aggregation of an individual-level measure of the beliefs about the perceived costs (i.e., deterrent outcomes) and benefits (i.e., encouraging outcomes) of being absent from work. The study demonstrated support for the existence of an absence culture and its impact on individual absence. |
