Research Report Summary

Topic Summary (from en.wikipedia.org): absenteeism is a habitual pattern of absence from a duty or obligation . Traditionally, absenteeism has been viewed as an indicator of poor individual performance, as well as a breach of an implicit contract between employee and employer; it was seen as a management problem, and framed in economic or quasi-economic terms. More recent scholarship seeks to understand absenteeism as an indicator of psychological, medical, or social adjustment to work.
