| Abstract: | Nurses completed ratings of the degree to which certain events relevant to absence were present during each of their scheduled workdays. The events ratings for days when the nurses decided to be absent were then compared with those for days when the nurses attended. As in previous studies, employees said that certain events such as ill health was among the most common reasons for previous absences. Also as expected, some events that were not especially relevant for the nurses as a whole nonetheless emerged as being relevant to the absence behaviour of certain individuals. Some events were related to the desire to be absent in that personal problems, feeling tired, and stress were significant correlates for the nurses' overall. |
