EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Absenteeism in Indian industries is not a new phenomenon. It is the manifestation of a

decision by employees not to present themselves at their workplace, at a time when it is

planned by the management that they should be in attendance. The absenteeism becomes a

problem to organizational management particularly when employees are absent from their

work environment without giving sufficient notice and by justifying their stand by

furnishing fake reasons. With liberalization and globalization, India has become a fast

developing country and created plenty of new jobs. But industrial growth has not been able

to keep pace with the pace of population growth; causing rampant unemployment .This

being the case one wonders about high rate of absenteeism in Indian industry. In Europe, in

some countries like Italy it is very common to find people having two Jobs. In India where

unemployment is high it is necessary to find out root cause of absenteeism to effective

corrective measures and to help employees to overcome their habit of absenteeism.

The main objective of the study was to find out the reason for absenteeism at ASIAN

ELECTRONICS LIMITED, and how remedy it. The samples were collected at random

based on their pervious absenteeism record at the company office. Personal interviews

were held to assist the employees to answer the questionnaire. Apart from this other

methods used for eliciting information were:-

1) Informal chat with the supervisors, workers and Trade Union Officials.

2) Journal and article published about company.

For this project work, company official will get new insight about absenteeism. Following

are some objectives which are helpful to study the absenteeism:-

Page 3: Sonis Project

(a) To study the concept of absenteeism in an ASIAN ELECTRONICS LIMITED.

(b) To study the leave policy of an AEL.

(c) To study the trends of absenteeism for an employees.

(d) To find out causes of absenteeism at ALE.

(e) To analyze effect of absenteeism and suggest remedies to control absenteeism at ALE.

Asian electronics limited is a manufacturing plant. The scope is restricted to only blue-

collared employees and staff members where not included. Study was conducted to know

various reasons of absenteeism at ground level and makes certain recommendations and

suggestions if any. This was done by studying attendance records of previous and current

year. Sample size is limited to 86 number due to difficulty to catch up irregular workers

on their job. This may not be an appropriate research, as total number of employees is a

very large quantity.

As it was life project, the expert from head office implemented immediate suggestions

given while conducting the project such as counseling, training programmers for

commitment towards work, stress management, etc.

LIMITAIONS OF PROJECT

1. Sample size is small.

2. Employees were hesitating to tell the true answer as they were anxious that some

action the management will take against them.

3. The employees may have answered list of statements accordingly to their moods

and environment of departments some of them might not be having clarity of

mind to answer the statement there in.

Page 4: Sonis Project

4. The ill-favor in the minds of employees about confidentiality of their answers

may affect the study.

5. Views of supervisors have not taken into considerations. We could not contradict

the questionnaire of absent workers with regular workers.

RATIONAL OF THE STUDY

The worth, utility of study from the future point of view extends to-

1) To reduce cost of absenteeism.

2) To provide safety valve to express the dissatisfaction of workers.

3) To improve Quality of work life.

4) Guide employees to solve their personal problems.

5) Training and development programs.

Hence the study provides an opportunity to know about the tussle going in the mind of

the employees and take necessary note of it. This help to improve the working condition

and working atmosphere of the company, which will be beneficial in the future to

company as well as employees.

1) Sickness and bad health are the major reasons given by the absent workers.

2) Absent employees do not monitor their attendance.

3) Family problem has created great impact on absenteeism.

4) Absent employees are unaware of one day loss by one day absentee.

5) Absent employees are lagging in time management.

5.1) TOPIC UNDER STUDY

ABSENTEEISM

INTRODUTION:

Perseverance is the secret of success. Success can not be maintained without

perseverance. Persistent people know, fit they can succeed where clever and more

talented people fail Successful people understand that, no one makes it to the top in a

single bound. What truly sets apart willingness to keep putting one step in front of the

other, no matter how rough the terrain is? This is the first and foremost difference

between great people and average people.

This is what made Mr. Nelson Mandela to survive prison for 27 years, at the end of

which, he became the President of the country, which kept him as a the success of

industrial production depends on the perseverance of its labor force. Labor is the blood

flowing through the veins of the body, no industry can survive, if labor disrupted.

Success of a nation depends on the success of its industrial production. With disruption of

labor, production comes to a stand still. Lack of production causes shortage of essential

goods, hardship to labor forces as they depend for their livelihood on continuous labor,

loss to the management and finally to the society at large.

Absenteeism is the opposite of perseverance. It has exactly the opposite effect of

perseverance. It causes production disruption causing disturbance in production

schedules. It causes loss to the worker as well as to the industry, both in terms of

economy and reputation.

Page 33: Sonis Project

DEFINATION OF ABSENTEEISM:

To have proper understanding of the term “Absenteeism”, it is very important to define

the term accurately. Unfortunately, the various authors have not been able to reach at a

consensus. They have defined it from various angles.

“Temporary cessation of work for not less than one whole working day, on the

initiative of the worker when his presence was expected”. (G.D.Hacket).

“Unauthorized absence of the worker from his job”. (Prof. Anka Walikar).

“Absence of worker when work is available” (Prof.K.G.Fenenol).

“Absenteeism is the practice or habit of being an absentee and “absentee is who

habitually stays away”. (Webster Dictionary).

“Absenteeism rate is the total number of man shifts lost because of absences as a

percentage of the total number of man shifts scheduled”. (Labor Department,

Govt. of India).

From definitions it is clear that there is no unanimity regarding the definition. There is an

ambiguity in the use of the term. A worker who is absent with permission, for the

purchase of calculating absenteeism. Further, if a worker is absent for a part of the time

or absent on account of strike, lock-out or lay off, he is excluded from the list of

absenteeism.

To clear the ambiguity the-term absence has been defined as “The failure of the worker to

report for work when he was scheduled to work”.

Page 34: Sonis Project

A worker is scheduled to work, when the employer has work available for him and

worker is aware of it.

PARTICULAR FEATURES OF ABSENTEEISM:

A) Absenteeism is lowest on pay day. It increases considerably on day following the

payment of wages and bonus.

B) Absenteeism is generally high among workers below 25 years of age and those

above 40 years of age.

C) Absenteeism is higher among female workers than in male workers.

D) The rate of absenteeism varies from department to department.

E) The percentage of absenteeism is higher in the night shifts than in day shifts.

F) The percentage absenteeism is seasonal in character and is highest during March-

April-May.

G) Absenteeism is high in coal and mica mining industries.

SOME GENERALIZATIONS:

Personnel researchers have found that generally a small percentage of employees

(15%) account for a large percentage of absenteeism (70%). These employees are

likely to have low interest in their tasks and to be physically below par. Research

studies have further revealed that:

1. The days before and after a holiday are liable to high rate of absenteeism.

2. Women are absent more often than men.

3. Bad weather increases absenteeism, especially among employees who live at

distant location.

Page 35: Sonis Project

Employees under the age of 25 years and above the age of 55 years are absent more

often than in the age group of 26 to 55 years.

Operative employees are absent more frequently than their supervisors

Understanding any other important problem.

Page 36: Sonis Project

TYPES OF ABSENTEEISM

We are studding the types of absenteeism with the help of some bullets points which is

shown us, the present procedure of those types of absence in the company.

Authorized Absenteeism:

If an employee is absent himself from work by taking permission from his superior

and applying for leave, such absenteeism is called authorized absenteeism.

Unauthorized Absenteeism:

If an employee is absent himself from work by without informing or taking

permission and without applying for leave, such absenteeism is called unauthorized

absenteeism.

Innocent Absenteeism

Innocent absenteeism refers to employees who are absent for reasons beyond their

control; like sickness and injury. Innocent absenteeism is not culpable which means that

it is blameless. In a labor relations context this means that it cannot be remedied or

treated by disciplinary measures.

Culpable Absenteeism

Culpable absenteeism refers to employees who are absent without authorization for

reasons which are within their control.

Absenteeism Caused by Circumstance beyond One’s Control:

Page 37: Sonis Project

If an employee is absent himself from duty owing to the circumstance beyond his

control

Accident Leave:

Timely information is not received.

Certificate by the privet Doctor is submitted, MED is not consulted for the

medical assistance.

Late Coming:

Late coming is allowed till 5 times a month.

Warning letters are prepared by PAC and singed by PER issued by the

concern dept. Head.

Warning letters are issued for the concern monthly only.

If the employees come late for more than 10 minutes, late pass is prepared but

this pass is not submitted in the department. Foreman certifies the attendance

after 15 day when he gets the error list.

Absenteeism on any particular day;

Absenteeism is high on Sunday/ festival days/Marriage season.

Night Shift Sleeping:

Workmen in the nightshift are not found at their work place.

Workmen sit in-group even on the shop floor and outside, during the late

evening/ night hours.

Page 38: Sonis Project

Workmen come out early from the dept. and go late when they go to canteen,

during shift.

Most of workmen sleep in the night around 2 or 3.am.

Causes of Absenteeism:

To minimize absenteeism, it is necessary to determine its extent and causes. To

facilitate this, proper records should be kept by every department for various causes

of absenteeism by such divisions as age, sex, days of week, and classes of jobs. It

should be noted that it is almost impossible to give a list of exact reasons, and their

percentages. The evaluator of the personnel program should classify the data

relating to absenteeism and try to analyze the various causes of absenteeism.

Generally the following reasons are accountable for absenteeism at work.

1. Sickness-Sickness is high on the list of causes of absenteeism, running as high

as 50% of the absenteeism in some causes.

2. Accidents- Industrial accidents and occupational diseases bring about

absenteeism depending upon the nature of the process and machinery used.

3. Poor Control- Poor production and material control can result in absenteeism.

Unless the flow of work between departments is balanced and continuous,

workers may stay away from their jobs because they lose their interest in the

work and also lose the feeling of the importance of being dependable.

4. Sex- At lower paid jobs, females has a higher rate of absence as compared with

males. However, at higher jobs there is no such thing.

5. Working Condition- if the working conditions of the company or poor, the

workers cannot adjust themselves with the company’s working condition or the

Page 39: Sonis Project

poor and intolerable working conditions in the factories irritates the workers.

Excess heat, noise, either too much or too low lighting, poor ventilation, dust,

smoke, etc. cause poor health of the workers. These factors cause s the workers

to be absent.

6. Low Level of Wages- Wages in some organizations are very poor and they are

quite inadequate to meet the basic needs of the employees. Therefore,

employees go for other employment during their busy seasons and earn more

money. Further, some employees take up part- time jobs.

7. Poor welfare facilities- Through a number of legislations concerning welfare

facilities are enacted, may organization fail to provide welfare facilities. This is

either due to the poor financial position of the companies or due to the

exploitative attitude of the employer. The poor welfare facilities include poor

sanitation, washing, bathing, first-aid appliance,

Ambulance, rest rooms, drinking water, canteen, shelter, crèches etc. The

dissatisfying workers with these facilities prefer to away from the workplace.

EFFECTS OF ABSENTEEISM :

Out of all factors of production, human factor plays a decisive role in achieving

prosperity of company. Like other organization MICO also strives hard to

maintain able and willing workforce, company also aims to creating a

conducive and congenial working environment which would go a long way in

attracting recruiting, developing, utilizing and retaining competent workforce.

1) EFFECT ON MANAGEMENT:

Page 40: Sonis Project

Management feels that if the human resources are maintained in the best

way it will give them good results in production. It not only reduces those habits

of workers of being absent but also provides a satisfied workforce amicable

atmosphere and industrial peace. Which are the prerequisites for the success of

any organization absenteeism has become a major labor problem for industrial

peace. This results in:

1) Production loss:

2) It reduces efficiency of operations by trainees:

Every man is not a perfect there is limitation in every ones life. To minimize there

Limitation Company uses to give them some types of training. But workers are

continuously absent those training programs it is affect badly on the trainees, who arrange

those programs. It also reduces the efficiency of workers while working the job. These

training programs give the worker how to face the changing technology and their

problems and how to solve them.

3) Requirement of job transfers:

Job transfer means to shift the job, one department to another department In any

workshop the workers are absent, it is very hard to management to transfers that work

shop job to another workshop and completing that type of job in limit period. If it is

happening continuously, it is a bad effect on management to there enplane target.

4) Finally it affects the discipline of the company:

Every company has its own disciplinary action to handed the company is environment. If

no one is obey this disciplinary action it is no use to company such type of discipline,

because without discipline, we can’t achieve the target. And worker use to take

unauthorized leave it is directly attached on the discipline of company and company’s

environment gets spoil.

Page 42: Sonis Project

5) Effect on interpersonal relationship:

Relationship is very important while working in company. Without good relationship

company can’t progression company absenteeism rate is go to high management makes

some new rules and regulation. Which are not expected by the workers & they are come

to management and discussing about the grievances matter. And it directly or indirectly

affects the relationship of worker and management.

EFFECT ON WORKERS:

Absenteeism has been recognized as vital issues effecting discipline, productivity and

efficiency. It is not only shows irresponsibility on the part of workers but also disloyalty

towards the organization, the workers of being absent.

1) Loose their leaf bonus and their economic condition deteriorate:

Company use to give leaves bonus to their employees. But it is given when if workers use

to take minimum leaves. And it is good advantage for the workers to take minimum

leaves and get the bonus. And these types of bonus definitely increased their earnings.

2) The loose sympathy of the employers and the employer’s loose confidence in them:

It is impossible for the management to achieve the target without the help of working

force. If the workers take continuously leaves they are definitely loose the sympathy of

the employers. And due to their habit of taking leaves, the employers loose confidence in

them. And it is bad effect on the management and workers. If the management loose the

confidential of their workers they are think about recruiting new working force.

3) Worker himself spoils their records:

Company use to make each and every worker’s personal records and with the help of

these records, company use to give promotion to that worker who has good records in his

Page 43: Sonis Project

carrier. If the worker use to take more leaves especially those leaves, which are

unauthorized at definitely spoil his personal record. And it is bad effect on his carrier too.

4) Workers get less/rather no chance of being promoted:

Bad record of absenteeism is always spoil record is bad patch on the workers carrier. He

is not getting chance of being promotion of less chance of being promoted of less chance

of promoted. And every individual want’s to get promotion to his carrier. But it is

possible when worker have good record.

5) Worker may loose their job and suffer economically and psychologically and social

too:

Any worker having bad record of his carrier or he is a cornice type of Absenteeism

Company takes final action against him and they use to give him is changing letter. And

the worker loosed his job. And it is bad effect on his economic condition. He suffers from

psychological condition too. Once loose the job it is very difficult for them to search a

new job. Thus is giving them psychological tension.

6) Excessive absenteeism results in the considerable loss of cost to the industry:

Because of absent employees schedules are disturbed and delayed, this results in

confusion and hasty job transfers, overtime and sometimes delay while meeting the

delivery dates of products.

7) Due to absenteeism, continuity of employee on the work or job is disturbed:

It affects his efficiency slightly sometimes his acquaintance in his work group is harmed

and finally group activities are largely suffering.

Page 44: Sonis Project

Control of Absenteeism:

Control of absenteeism depends upon its causes. When its causes are uncovered

by study and analysis, steps can be taken to reduce them. Some of the causes are

relatively simple to isolate and attack, but others are very complex and management may

have no control over them For instance, if it is found that sickness of employees is the

major cause of absenteeism, then”* there is a real problem of how to combat the illness.

Some organizations have found vitamin tablets of use in such cases, some have insisted

upon health examination, and other have^/ installed job rotation plans with success. In

essence, there is no single sure cure for causes of absenteeism. However, the management

may use the following measures to control absenteeism.

1. Proper Induction – The new employees should be inducted in such a way

that their critical attitude is reduced as quickly as possible to avoid

absenteeism from this source.

2. Investigation – The management should properly analyze the various causes

of absenteeism and classify the chronic offenders. This issue should also be

discussed with the representatives of the unions. The management should try

to remove the causes of absenteeism which are under its control.

3. Punishment -Before taking any disciplinary action against the chronic

offenders, their names should be adequately published in the organization. If

Page 45: Sonis Project

the need arises, the chronic offenders may be disciplined by layoffs,

discharges and loss of promotion and other privileges.

4. Counseling - All absent workers should be interviewed upon their return to

determine causes and to impress upon the seriousness of their absence.

5. Prevention of Accidents – Industrial accidents or even fear of industrial

accidents increase absenteeism. The management should take adequate safety

measures to minimize industrial accidents in the workshop.

6. Effective Supervision - Absenteeism can be reduced to a great extent by

effective supervision. Supervisors and foreman should be given adequate

training to deal with various problems of workers. Absenteeism will be at a

low level if the supervisors are able to win the confidence of workers.

6.2 ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION OF THE DATA

INTRODUCTION:

In this chapter, the data is tabulated and is represented in various graphs.

The data collected were from the questionnaires and are summarized in the percentage of

the observations made through questionnaires or various questions that are helpful for

drawing conclusions for the project study.

The data which is mentioned below all depends on Questionnaire with

the survey of 86 samples-

Page 50: Sonis Project

Employee? (Question for workers)

Since how many years you are associated with this company? (Manager)

Below 10yrs., 18

Between10-20yrs., 58

21yrs. And above, 10

From the table we notice that maximum workers have a service record of 10 years and

above. They are aware that to dismiss them is not easy. So they tend to take leave easily.

A long year also has affected their health, as we will notice later. Many of them suffer

various diseases like blood, hyper tension, backache and stomachache skin irritation (in

mixing, extruding) etc.

Monthly net income varies in accordance with extend of their absenteeism as will

as wages.

We find that the quantity of workers having income below Rs.4000/- &

earning about Rs.6000/- to Rs.8000/- are same i.e.18 (20.90%). The earning

between Rs.4000/-and Rs.6000/- are 36.05%. The income was not a major factor

in their absenteeism as we noticed that 83.72% workers are happy with their

present wages. Absenteeism among these groups may be due to the fact that they

are average group and can manage themselves even if they are absent for a period

of time. They can easily get loans from friends and neighbors. They tend to enjoy

leisure as much as possible.

This group is hindered from coming to work on regular basis, due to the fact that

they are not able to have the service of a servant for household activity.

C) WAGE – SATISFACTION:

we can say that wage is not a major factor in absenteeism as 32.55% respondents find the

wage sufficient to manage their family & other expenditure. Dissatisfied workers manly

find wages insufficient against their requirements.

problems like accident, fatigue, sleeplessness, restless etc. some training has to be given

to them so as to overcome this problems such as teaching them how to handle personal

SUGGESTIONS & CONCLUSIONS

Page 66: Sonis Project

7 .1 CONCLUSION

While doing project on absenteeism of labor hour lost by the organization in the specific

period. The study provides an important and different angle to look in to the rate of

absenteeism. It helps to detect the factors which are mentally, physically, psychologically

and sociologically affecting the workers and necessary steps can be taken to reduce

organization eliminate. Hence the study provides an opportunity to know about the tussle

going in the mind of the employees and take necessary note of it. This help to improve

the working condition and working atmosphere of the company, which will be beneficial

in the future to company as well as employees.

6) Sickness and bad health are the major reasons given by the absent workers.

7) Absent employees do not monitor their attendance.

8) Family problem has created great impact on absenteeism.

9) Absent employees are unaware of one day loss by one day absentee.

10) Absent employees are lagging in time management.

11) Absenteeism is high among workers who have served more than 10 years. The

long years of service assure them of continued service with light punishment.

12) Many workers find it difficult to work in night shift.

Page 67: Sonis Project

7.1 RECOMMENDATION AND SUGGESTIONS

1) Mainly attitudinal problem is the reason for absenteeism so long with the workers,

their family members should also have to be interviewed and guided to solve their

problem so that worker can work with efficiency.

2) Strict Discipline – the management rules relating unauthorized absence should be on

forced strictly a defaulters should be punished immediately.

3) Many of the employees are unable to read well, any of the languages. Hence standing

order of the company could be punished in the form of pocket diaries, high lighting the

important points, so that they can be very well aware about consequences of

absenteeism.

4) Re- education of the workers especially the chronic absentees would help them.

5) Nightshifts are a major cause of absenteeism. Hence older worker could be adjusted to

fit in to one of the early shifts.

6) Creation of Informal Group – An informal group of regular workers who are co-

workers of irregular workers can help to understand actual cause of their absenteeism in

absenteeism in friendlier manner.

7) Each year company gives award for best attendance throughout all depts.., but workers

wish to have monetary award. Company should give certain amount under attendance

scheme.

8) More training and development program should be conducted to reduce absenteeism

and develop the committed and motivated employees.

Page 68: Sonis Project

Suggested training programs are,

Time management

Work performance journal

Meditation

Why to work

The habit of saving

Self image

Scientific rest in work without affecting productivity.

9) Team building exercise should be conducted to solve interpersonal problems

among peers, especially between regular and irregular workers. Peer pressure can

enable the irregular workers to come for work.

10) Visiting professional counselor should be appointed for counseling.

11) Work fatigue can be reduced by conducting cultural programmers in the

company or by organizing picnic every year or by lessening the load of work. Many

stress management programmers will also be useful.

12) Views of supervisor should be considered while going through the absenteeism

case of particular worker.
