Tiivistelmä: | Some preliminary results of a study of a large new data set drawn from the payroll and absence records of a British manufacturing firm is reported. Empirical studies of absence have suffered in the past from a failure to account for an identification problem. A new approach to solving the identification issue in current data is to model carefully the rather complex constraint system facing the workers. The results obtained demonstrate the potential importance of including financial aspects in the explanation of absence behaviour. Particularly, well-determined, although not easily interpretable effects of the sickpay scheme on the duration of absence were found. |
