According to an 
article in HR Magazine, over two million British employees took a sick day following their office Christmas party in December 2008, at a cost to the UK economy of £216 million.
A third of the employees who called in sick were honest about the reason for their absence, while almost a quarter claimed they couldn’t come in because they were suffering from flu, with food poisoning and migraines amongst other popular excuses.
By creating a permanent, online record of sick leave for all members of staff, including their ongoing Bradford Factor score, LeaveMaster acts as a powerful deterrent against unwarranted absenteeism.

It’s been revealed that social workers in Birmingham take an average of nearly twenty-five days off sick a year, the equivalent of almost five working weeks and almost three-and-a-half times the national average for all industries. Meanwhile, separate research has shown that 10% of national social workers take more than 20 days of sick leave per year.
As discussed in earlier blogs, the astute way to ensure that absenteeism doesn’t reach a critical level in your organisation is to implement a powerful leave and absence management solution, such as LeaveMaster.
LeaveMaster helps you tackle absenteeism by establishing an irrefutable record of sick leave for every employee and enabling you to identify costly absenteeism patterns and trends that you may otherwise have overlooked.

According to a report by recruitment outsourcing company Elemense, employees under 35 are twice as likely as their older colleagues to call in sick during the winter months.
However, employee absence rates are typically high across all age groups at this time of year, as staff call in sick with colds and flu or are discouraged from coming into work because of the cold weather, with the problem exacerbated this year by the severe weather conditions.
If your absence rates are unusually high during the winter months, with too many of your employees calling in sick, the cure could be to implement a leave and absence management solution like LeaveMaster.
By automatically calculating the ongoing Bradford Factor score for every employee in your organisation for you and showing you at a glance how many sick days each of your employees has had, LeaveMaster acts as a powerful deterrent to absenteeism and allows you to identify and take action against employees who have been taking too many “sickies”.
