Your HR director has asked you to determine whether your organization (a group of about 50 non-unionized, full-time managers and professionals working in scientific services in Alberta) has an absenteeism problem. You go to the Statistics Canada website and search for absenteeism data from the Labour Force Survey, where you are happy to discover that the average absenteeism rate in Canada (in 2011) is 9.3 days, and the employees in your organizations take an average of 9 days per year.
