| Tiivistelmä: | In a study, conducted amongst 121 employees in two hospitals, the sources of variability were examined. Two common measures of absence were used: frequency and time-lost. Time series analyses over a five-year span suggest substantial differences by month, season and year. The analysis of variance of the frequently measure reveals significant differences between seaons and years and a significant season by year interaction. These trends are less prominent with the time-lost measure, with only the seasonal differences remaining significant. The implications of these findings for the study and measurement of absenteeism are discussed. Some other implications for the practice of personnel management are summarized. |
