Absenteeism is the failure to report for work as scheduled. Presenteeism is showing up to work when one is ill . Both cause a decrement in productivity. On a continuum, presenteeism stands between full work engagement and absenteeism. Some estimate that presenteeism costs 4 times as much as absenteeism (Karin Iten, 2013)... While the exact data on impact of presenteeism is not universally agreed upon...Work @ Health focuses on reducing both through a comprehensive worksite health program. The one day workshop on October 18 in Atlanta included citations for tools that can be used establishing the baseline measure andeither building or enhancing worksite health.
