HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGMENT 1
Introduction
Human resource management is considered as one of the most important aspect of every
organization in terms of growth and development. Human resource management forms the
backbone of the organization by connecting the entire department of the organization with the
help of single thread in terms of strategic planning (Ogunyomi and Bruning, 2016). Human
resource management mainly focus on the activities which are connected with the human capital
of organization like compensation plan, structure, wages, benefits and one of the most important
activity which is recruitment and selection in which brilliant minds are offered to the
organization to attain the overall objective of the organization with effectiveness.
High level of absence in organization and need of proactive management
As per the study, it has been found that level of absenteeism has been increased among the
employees as compared to few years ago. This kind of trend has been seen more in big
companies as compared to medium size companies. In addition to this, it has been seen that it has
been seen that rate of absence in public sector is more as compared to private section almost
50%. This type of trend is seen less in manufacture section as compared to service sectors. It has
been explored that the key reason behind this trend is the growing pressure, minor illness which
is linked with short leaves, injuries related to muscles like back pain, joint pains (CIPD, 2015).
But when it comes to long term absence, the two main key reason are acute medical condition
and work pressure stress in the company which generate mental illness.
One of the best option for becoming proactive in this situation is introducing work interview
when person return to the work because it will help the organization to have a meaning full
dialogue between employee and their manager which will offer the manager insight about the
reason for absent before thing become worst (Knoll and Redman, 2016). One of the best example
is if worker is in need of flexible working hours due to family condition and management is not
offering this service to individual, then individuals rate of absenteeism will be more and will
create problem in future for the management. Proactive management will offer opportunity to
develop effective communication in order to drive possible solution for this issue.
In this situation company can introduce a procedural document in the form of standard
operational procedure. This procedural document will follow some steps which will help the
company in reducing absenteeism. First step will be tracking the employee absences record
related to paid leaves with the help of absent management system (Notenbomer et al., 2018).
Second step will be introduce a wellness program in which this behaviour of employee can be
change with the help of mentoring. Third step will be modifying work according to the present
condition of the employee after illness. Four step will be offering employee work environment
which is free from stress. Fifth step will be offering generous paid time off to the employee to
reduce work stress.
