  • Title: Absenteeism control programs. Results of a national survey of certified occupational health nurses.
    Author: Smith SE, Reid WM.
    Journal: AAOHN J; 1991 Jun; 39(6):281-5. PubMed ID: 2031650.
    Abstract:
    An absenteeism control program can reduce employee absenteeism, thereby reducing company expenses, improving productivity, and bringing workers back to work sooner. A survey of Cohn's suggests that many companies in the United States lack absenteeism control programs, and those firms that have such programs are unlikely to have all the elements of a good program in place. Placing the occupational health nurse in charge of a comprehensive program will provide needed leadership, responsibility, expertise, and control.
