Statistics show that UK employees call in sick more than 6 days every year, resulting in a whopping 131 million days lost through absences due to sickness or injury. As an employer, it is vital that you understand how to keep absenteeism to a minimum. Of course, there are times when staff members are genuinely unable to attend work.
