This paper examines the problem of absenteeism in the work place, focusing on the relevant theoretical approaches. The paper begins by defining the term, and by evaluating the cost of absenteeism for organizations. Many theories are analysed and opinions are discussed, like motivation and the ability to attend work, the Steers and Rhodes (1978) approach, and the support of leaders. The paper then discusses the case of a company with absenteeism as a problem. The paper concludes with a summary of the theories relevant to the topic.
