Description An organization is interested in conducting a study of the factors that help explain absenteeism among its production employees. After reviewing the literature on absenteeism and interviewing several employees and production supervisors, a researcher in charge of the project defined the variables, and for a random sample of 77 employees, data were collected. The dependent variable is absenteeism (ABSENT). The other variables are considered possible explanatory variables. The data set is saved as absenteeism.xls. The goal of the study is to identify factors that influence absenteeism and to develop an appropriate model to explain it. The following hyperlinks give some reports on issues of absenteeism in the workplace. https://mitrefinch.com/blog/absenteeism-definition/ https://mitrefinch.com/blog/9-underlying-causes-employee-absenteeism-workplace/ https://www.mercer.ca/en/our-thinking/how-much-are-you-losing-to-absenteeism.html http://www.investopedia.com/articles/personal-finance/070513/causes-and-costs-absenteeism.asp Managing Absenteeism In a Multi-Generation Workforce Column Label Description A ABSENT Number of distinct occasions worker is absent (absentees for one or more days) B AbsentCAT Absence Category: leONE if zero or one absence; TWO if 2 absences; 3to6 if 3 to 6 absences Jobindex Complexity of job Index (0 to 100%) D JobCat Complexity of job Category: LOW if Index70 E BASEPAY Base hourly pay rate in $ SENIORITY Number of complete years with the company G SeniorCat Seniority Category (Below5Yr, 5to10Yr, Overl0Yr) H SATISFY Supervisor satisfaction (0 = Dissatisfied, 1= Satisfied) I DEPEND Number of Dependents J DependCat Dependents Category (None, lor2, 3to5) F G 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 A ABSENT 0 1 0 2 0 1 1 1 2 1 3 2 1 3 2 0 4 6 3 2 2 4 2 0 3 3 3 0 2 3 1 4 2 1 3 2 4 4 4 B ABSENTCAT leONE leONE leONE TWO leONE leONE leONE leONE TWO leONE 3T06 TWO leONE 3T06 TWO leONE 3 3TOR 3 TOG TWO TWO 3 TWO leONE 3 3T06 leONE TWO 3T06 leONE 3 TWO leONE 3T06 TWO 3T06 3 3T06 Jobindex 45 76 56 76 70 69 56 56 43 76 30 50 10 69 67 69 70 13 16 52 52 3 6 67 10 89 21 34 12 70 69 13 30 43 8 69 30 23 16 D JobCat STANDARD HIGH STANDARD HIGH STANDARD STANDARD STANDARD STANDARD STANDARD HIGH LOW STANDARD LOW STANDARD STANDARD STANDARD STANDARD LOW LOW STANDARD STANDARD LOW LOW STANDARD LOW HIGH LOW STANDARD LOW STANDARD STANDARD LOW LOW STANDARD LOW STANDARD LOW LOW LOW E BASEPAY 21.66 23.74 21.08 23.74 23.92 22.31 21.78 20.70 22.99 21.63 21.02 22.88 20.80 2248 23.61 2244 23 34 22.17 23 67 2339 22.87 22.04 21 38 2442 20.66 25.51 20.83 22.27 24.47 2271 22.39 21.77 22.28 21.19 22.40 23.03 20.84 20.81 22.57 SENIORITY 3 10 9 7 14 9 3 1 9 1 1 9 1 4 3 4 8 1 31 5 16 2 4 G 1 18 SeniorCat Below5Y Sto 10 Sto 1041 Sto 101 Over1OY! 5to10Y1 Below5Y1 Below5Y1 5to1071 Below5Y!
