The Case for Total Absence Management
If employee absenteeism is starting to have a material effect on your bottom line, you’ll be happy to know that an automated workforce management system can make it a lot easier to track absences, ensure adequate staffing coverage, and manage your labor costs.
An automated workforce management system can offer a total absence management solution that integrates attendance and leave tracking with your core time and attendance system. By providing complete audit trails, attendance records, and leave-of-absence records, it helps minimize your risk of litigation, audits, and employee grievances or claims. And now, you can automate your attendance and leave much in the same way you can automate the basic collection and calculation of hours.
According to CCH Employment Law Analyst Pamela Wolf, JD, "Unscheduled absenteeism is a problem that no organization can afford to ignore – either from a cost or productivity standpoint. With the appropriate programs in place, businesses can significantly reduce the number of last minute no-shows, improve the work environment for all employees and realize substantial savings."
According to the 2007 CCH Unscheduled Absence Survey, conducted for CCH by Harris Interactive®, employers have failed to make significant headway against the costly absenteeism problem that takes billions of dollars off the bottom line for U.S. businesses. The nation's largest employers estimate that unscheduled absenteeism costs their businesses more than $760,000 per year in direct payroll costs, and even more when lower productivity, lost revenue and the effects of poor morale are considered.

Client Case Study
“Before ADP, the process of requesting vacation time had to be a three-day process for us, from the time the written request left the employee’s hand and got into the payroll system – assuming the paper request form didn’t get lost somewhere. Now, with ADP’s online solution in place, the process is down to how fast an employee’s manager can get into his or her e-mail and approve the vacation form. As soon as the manager clicks the approval button, it’s in our payroll system, and vacation time is ready to be paid.” Dale McCarrell, Chief Financial Officer, East Bank Club
