ABSTRACT
The term absence refers to all stay away from work whether authorized absence. Absenteeism
affects the organization productivity and morale. So each and every organization should
concentrate about absenteeism.
In this view point I did my project on absenteeism management in Hyundai Motors India
Limited. To find out the employees unauthorized absence in HMI. Because in the 2000
employees the company affected by the absenteeism especially unauthorized absence of
employee even though they provide 5% leave facilities for the employees in a year.
In my study I found out thus the dissatisfaction in their current work is mainly leads to
unauthorized absence. So I analyses about the factors which is may be leads the employees
dissatisfaction in their work, by this analysis the company has able to reduce the unauthorized
absence, it helps to increase the effectiveness in production and also it helps to reduce the
dissatisfaction of employee in their current work.

HYUNDAI MOTORS INDIA LIMITED. The sample size is taken for this study is 200 and
stratified sampling method is followed for selecting a sample .The data had been collected
through a questionnaire. The statistical tools like percentage analysis
The major finding is job factor, which affect the organization poorly. The suggestion is based on
the findings.
COMPANY PROFILE
COMPANY PROFILE:
Hyundai Motor India Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Hyundai Motor
Company in India. It is the 2nd largest automobile manufacturer in India.
Hyundai Motor India Limited was formed in 6 May 1996 by the Hyundai Motor
Company of South Korea. When Hyundai Motor Company entered the Indian Automobile
Market in 1996 the Hyundai brand was almost unknown throughout India. During the entry of
Hyundai in 1996, there were only five major automobile manufacturers in India,
i.e. Maruti, Hindustan, Premier, Tata and Mahindra. Daewoo had entered the Indian automobile
market with Cielo just three years back while Ford, Opel and Honda had entered less than a year
back.
For more than a decade till Hyundai arrived, Maruti Suzuki had a near monopoly over the
passenger cars segment because TELCO and M&M were solely utility and commercial vehicle
manufacturers, while Hindustan and Premier both built outdated and uncompetitive products.
Hyundai Motor India Limited (HMIL) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Hyundai Motor Company
(HMC). HMIL is the largest passenger car exporter and the second largest car manufacturer in
India. It currently markets ten car models across segments - in the A2 segment it has the Eon,
Santro, i10, Grand, Xcent and the i20, in the A3 segment the Verna, in the A4 segment the
Elantra, in the A5 segment Sonata and in the SUV segment the Santa Fe.
HMILs fully integrated state-of-the-art manufacturing plant near Chennai boasts advanced
production, quality and testing capabilities. HMIL forms a critical part of HMCs global export
hub. It currently exports to around 120 countries across EU, Africa, Middle East, Latin America,
Australia and the Asia Pacific. HMIL has been Indias number one exporter for the past eight
years consecutively.
To support its growth and expansion plans, HMIL currently has 388 dealers and more than 1000
service points across India. In its commitment to provide customers with cutting-edge global
technology, HMIL set up a modern multi-million dollar R&D facility in Hyderabad. The R&D
center endeavors to be a center of excellence in automobile engineering.
HISTORY:
HMIL's first car, the Hyundai Santro was launched in 23 September 1998 and was a runaway
success. Within a few months of its inception HMIL became the second largest automobile
manufacturer and the largest automobile exporter in India. Hyundai Motor India Limited (HMIL)
is a wholly owned subsidiary of Hyundai Motor Company (HMC), South Korea and is the
largest passenger car exporter and the second largest car manufacturer in India. HMIL presently
markets 10 models - Eon, Santro, i10, Grand i10, Xcent, i20, Verna, Elantra, Sonata and Santa
Fe.
HMILs manufacturing plant near Chennai claims to have the most advanced production, quality
and testing capabilities in the country. To cater to rising demand, HMIL commissioned its second
plant in February 2008, which produces an additional 300,000 units per annum, raising HMILs
total production capacity to 600,000 units per annum.
HMC has set up a research and development facility(Hyundai Motor India Engineering - HMIE)
in the cyber city of Hyderabad.
As HMCs global export hub for compact cars, HMIL is the first automotive company in India to
achieve the export of 10 lakh cars in just over a decade. HMIL currently exports cars to more
than 120 countries across EU, Africa, Middle East, Latin America, Asia and Australia. It has been
the number one exporter of passenger cars of the country for the eighth year in a row.
To support its growth and expansion plans, HMIL currently has 388 strong dealer network and
more than 1000 strong service points across India, which will see further expansion in 2014. In

INTRODUCTION TO
TOPIC
Low morale.
Poor supervision.
Excessive work.
DEFINITION OF ABSETEEISM:
Absenteeism is the failure of employees to report for work when they are scheduled to work.
Employees who are away from work on recognized holidays, vacations, approved leaves of
absence, or approved leaves of absence would not be included
According to labour Bureau, simla,absenteeism is the total man shifts lost because of absences
as a percentage of the total number of man shifts scheduled to work.
According to Webster dictionary, absenteeism is the practice or habit of absentee, and an
absentee is one who habitually stays away
WORK AND ABSENTEEISM:
Absenteeism is understood as unauthorized absence from work. Stated differently, it amounts to
absenteeism when an employee is scheduled to work but fails to report for duty.
Algebraically, absenteeism is calculated thus:
Number of persons-days lost *1
Average number of persons*
Number of working days absenteeism obviously reduces the number of employees available for
work. If the absenteeism rate is four percent. Only 96 out of 100 people available for work. The
effect of absenteeism on the future supply of labor should be allowed for, and trends in
absenteeism should be analyzed to trace causes prescribe remedial actions.
PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION;
o
Absenteeism is the problem for every organization and business. It creates cost and productivity
problem, puts an unfair burden of employees who show up for work, ultimately hinders customer
satisfaction, and drains the countrys economy.
Workplace
As a result, many employees feel obliged to come to work while ill, and transmit communicable
diseases to their co-workers. This leads to even greater absenteeism and reduced productivity
among other workers who try to work while ill. Work forces often excuse absenteeism caused by
medical reasons if the employee provides supporting documentation from their medical
practitioner.
Sometimes, people choose not to show up for work and do not call in advance, which businesses
may find to be unprofessional and inconsiderate. This is called a "no call, no show". According
to Nelson & Quick (2008) people who are dissatisfied with their jobs are absent more frequently.
They went on to say that the type of dissatisfaction that most often leads employees to miss work
is dissatisfaction with the work itself.
The psychological model that discusses this is the "withdrawal model", which assumes that
absenteeism represents individual withdrawal from dissatisfying working conditions. This finds
empirical support in a negative association between absence and job satisfaction, especially
satisfaction with the work itself.
Medical-based understanding of absenteeism find support in research that links absenteeism with
smoking, problem drinking, low back pain, and migraines. Absence ascribed to medical causes is
often still, at least in part, voluntary. Research shows that over one trillion dollars is lost annually
due to productivity shortages as a result of medical-related absenteeism, and that increased focus
on preventative wellness could reduce these costs.
The line between psychological and medical causation is blurry, given that there are positive
links between both work stress and depression and absenteeism. Depressive tendencies may lie
behind some of the absence ascribed to poor physical health, as with adoption of a "culturally
approved sick role". This places the adjective "sickness" before the word "absence", and carries a
burden of more proof than is usually offered.
Evidence indicates that absence is generally viewed as "mildly deviant workplace behavior". For
example, people tend to hold negative stereotypes of absentees, under report their own
absenteeism, and believe their own attendance record is better than that of their peers. Negative
attributions about absence then bring about three outcomes: the behavior is open to social
control, sensitive to social context, and is a potential source of workplace conflict.
Thomas suggests that there tends to be a higher level of stress with people who work with or
interact with a narcissist, which in turn increases absenteeism and staff turnover
Absent does not only mean not being at work. Absent also means:
Arriving late (or poor timekeeping, if you like. It is still absent as long as the employee
is not at work.)
Leaving early (again, if you like, poor timekeeping. It is still absent if he is not at
work)
Extended tea or lunch breaks - the employee is not at the workstation, and therefore
absent.
Attending to private business during working hours - the employee is at work, but is
not attending to his/her duties in terms of the employment contract - and is therefore
absent.
Feigned illness - thus giving rise to unnecessary visits to the on-site clinic, or take time
off to "visit the doctor" - which they never do, because they don't need a medical
certificate for less than 2 days off.
Undue length of time in fetching or carrying (tools from the tool room, for example, or
drawings from the drawing office, etc)
There are a number of remedies- a large number, in fact - that can be used to combat this
scourge.
In order to perform the duties which he/she has been hired to do, and he/she must remain at the
workstation for the contracted number of hours per day in order to perform the requisite duties. If
the employee does not do that, he/she cannot fulfill his/her contractual obligation, and is
therefore in breach of contract. This obligation - to come to work and stay on the job whilst at
work - does not only come out of the Employment Contract. It arises also from three other
sources - Common Law, Statutes, and Company Rules and Regulations.
Common Law
Common Law is not laws that have been legislated by Parliament, but rather arise mainly from
Court judgments and general practice and precedent. It is law that has developed over the years,
and is what people have come to accept as recognized norms and standards, and which are
enforced by our Courts. An employee has a number of obligations under common law which
he/she must meet, and it should be noted that these obligations exist even if they are not
specifically stated in the Contract of Employment:
[a] to provide the employer with his labor - i.e. to be at work.
[b] to obey reasonable and lawful instructions.
[c] to act in good faith. [ to protect his employer's interests.]
[d] not to misconduct himself/herself. [to behave properly according to the accepted norms of
society]
[e] to perform his duties.[to work in a satisfactory manner]
For the purpose of this subject, the most important is the first Common Law rule - to provide the
employer with his labour.
To do this, the employee must not only come to work - he/she must come to work on time, and
be at the workstation during the agreed hours - even if the employer has no work for him to
do. That may sound a bit strange, but remember that the employer is paying the employee to
come to work and be at the workstation, even if the employer has no work for him/her to do. If
the employee was paid only for work done then he/she would be entitled to leave the workstation
if there was no work to be done. But that is not usually the case.
If the employee does not do these things, he/she may well be in breach of his/her Common Law
conditions of his/her employment contract and is potentially an ex-employee. There is a further
legal concept that bears mention - this is the Principle of Unjust Enrichment. What it means, very
simply, is that "nobody may be enriched at the expense of another". The contract of employment
provides (perhaps not in as many words, but certainly by implication) that the employee shall
offer his/her services and that the employer shall pay him/her for such services.
If the employee does not provide those services (because of absenteeism) then it is unfair for the
employer to have to pay for something that is his contractual right to receive. It is equally unfair
for the employee to benefit - by means of being paid - for something he/she did not do in terms
of the Employment Contract. Put differently, it means very simply: no work - no pay.
Statute Law
This differs from Common Law in that Statute Law is law that has been legislated by Parliament
or some other law making body. Statute Law usually prescribes limits, sets levels and specifies
minimum standards, and specifies contractual terms not covered by Common Law. The statutes
which concern us are the Labour Relations Act, The Basic Conditions of Employment Act, the
Employment Equity Act, the Skills Development Act and the Occupational Health and Safety
Act, Wage Determinations, various Industrial Council Main Agreements, Collective Agreements
and so on.
The Labour Law Practitioner may also deal occasionally with the Close Corporations Act (which
contains special disciplinary procedures for enforcing disciplinary measures against members),
the Insolvency Act, the Public Service Act, and perhaps a few others.
So as can be seen, Statute Law is very involved. The difference is this - under Common Law, you
could probably enter into an Employment Contract whereby the employee would have to work
15 hours a day, take 10 minutes for lunch, work 7 days a week, get 5 days leave a year, and not
be paid for any sick leave, and be fired any time you feel like it. However, because of the
protective effect of Statute Law, such a contract would be illegal even if the employee agreed to
it.
You cannot enter into any agreement or contract that contains any condition less favorable to any
party to the agreement than the corresponding condition contained in any relevant Statute. Any
such contract or agreement is unenforceable, as many employers have discovered to their cost.
Statute Law in general sets out to protect the employee and ensure that the employer does not
take advantage of him/her.
Statute Law is important when dealing with unauthorized absenteeism, because it specifies when
an employee may legally absent himself/herself from the workplace, irrespective of any
condition contained in the Employment Contract or Company Rules and Regulations.
Common Law
Company Rules and Regulations.
For example, if an employee is late every day for a week because the trains are late due to stolen
cables, this may well be true - perhaps the cables were stolen, so the reason for being late is
valid. But you do not have to accept it as justification for being late and thus excuse the latecoming. The rule is that the Company has certain working hours - how the employee gets to
work is his/her problem, not yours.
Effects of absenteeism
The effects of absenteeism are widespread. Absenteeism leads to
reduced employee productivity
reduced employee morale, and
increased overhead costs.
Further, studies have shown that replacement labor is only about 75% effective. We were
interested in looking at the management of absenteeism because we feel it is an important aspect
of providing value for money in service delivery.
Absence where the employee does not turn up for work at all can sometimes be the most difficult
type of absenteeism to handle - simply because there can be a host of reasons for this, and you
will have to sift out the truth from the B.S. before deciding what action to take. Remember
though that the employee must justify the absence.
This type of absence may be due to personal problems - sick wife, sick kids, urgent financial
crisis, death in the family or death of a close relative, or some other domestic crisis that requires
the employee to stay at home to handle it.
Under such circumstances, the employee should notify you by telephone, by a message delivered
with another employee, by a telephone call from a friend to you, by a runner with a cleft stick, or
some means. It is very seldom that there is just no means whatsoever of notifying the employer
of the absence - the usual excuse (totally unacceptable) is that "there was no telephone." This is
nonsense, and must be rejected outright unless the employee lives in Borneo or on top of Mt.
Everest.
However, should the employee fail to notify you of the reason for the absence within a
reasonable time, the failure to do so only renders the absence more serious - and the employee, if
absent for more than 3 days ( in some cases 5 days ) may well find that he/she has been
dismissed for desertion. Note also that even if the employee does notify you that he will be
absent for the day, such notification does not mean that the absence is now authorized. You may
decide to treat the absence as authorized and pay the employee for the period absent, or you may
decide to authorize it but treat it as unpaid leave. It will depend on the circumstances.
Whatever happens, the event must be recorded in the employee's file, you must have a short
counseling session with the employee (again recorded) and you must follow Company
disciplinary procedures, if any. If the reason advanced for the absenteeism is unacceptable to
you, then issue a written warning to that effect and make the warning valid for 12 months. The
record keeping is vital in the event that the employee becomes a habitual absentee, and you need
to dismiss at some future stage. The absence could also be due to some uncontrollable event heavy rains flood his house, or even the entire village, a tornado or cyclone (not uncommon these
days in certain parts of the R.S.A.), roads washed away, telephones out of order, rail strike, etc.
However, with such events you will almost certainly know about them because they will be
reported on the radio and T.V., so the reason for the absence is obviously valid and
acceptable. Despite this, you still are not obliged to pay the employee - you must decide on
that.Remember the principles of no work - no pay, and also "how you get to work is your
problem" But be reasonable and fair. For example, there may be other employees who live in the
same stricken area, but who did come to work - albeit late. In that case, you would take a more
unsympathetic view of any who stayed away altogether.
Unrest, Violence and political stay-away is becoming more infrequent these days - but calls by
the Unions for national strikes and stay-aways are not so. A good policy to adopt is that quite
simply, any absence because of unrest, violence, political stay-away or national strike or stayaway will be treated as unpaid leave. Deliberate and willful absenteeism is when the employee
does not come to work because he just feels like a day off - no other reason. There is usually a
pattern, such as the employee is always absent on payday or the day after payday - or is always
absent on a Monday or a Friday (not necessarily every Friday and every Monday, but when
he/she is absent it is on a Friday or a Monday.)
Willful and deliberate absence is a very serious offence because the employee has deliberately
and willfully chosen to ignore his/her contractual duty to present himself/herself for work, and is
therefore in breach of contract. This type of absenteeism calls for severe discipline - even to the
extent of suspending the employee for say one week without pay, or a final written warning valid
for 12 months. Obviously, proper disciplinary procedures must be followed.
REVIEW OF
LITERATURE
Author - Mona Buschak, Christa Craven, Robert, Ledman; Journal -SAM Advanced
Management Journal Volume- 61, 1996
This paper reviews the literature related to absenteeism and suggests how managers can
improve their absenteeism rate and, as a result, improve productivity. At least 50% of all
employee absenteeism is not caused by bona fide illness or other acceptable reason. Absenteeism
is higher in manufacturing environments than in other areas and is a bigger problem among bluecollar workers than white-collar. Absenteeism is higher in union settings than in nonunion
settings. Single persons are typically absent more than married.
Teacher Absenteeism in Secondary Education;

Volume- 27, No. 4, 506-529 (1991) DOI: 10.1177/0013161X91027004004
Teacher absenteeism is a serious problem for school systems. Using an existing model of
attendance behavior as a guide, attitudinal, demographic and absenteeism data from 265
secondary teachers were examined. Canonical correlation analysis revealed that absenteeism
among teachers was significantly related to distance to work, gender, job involvement, and
overall job satisfaction.
Exit-voice and employee absenteeism: A critique of the industrial relations literature

Industrial relations research that has examined the effects of collective voice on employee
absenteeism through traditional exit-voice analyses suffers from a number of important
theoretical and empirical limitations. The research is limited theoretically in that the framework
used cannot discretely classify absenteeism as a form of either exit or voice.
This inability reflects a larger problem with the exit-voice frameworks lack of adequate
attention to the conditions under which collective voice mechanisms fail and the consequences of
such failure for the behavior of industrial relations actors. Exit-voice studies of absenteeism have
important methodological problems, particularly in the way absenteeism and voice criteria have
been operational zed.
These defects in the literature can be addressed through the integration of behavioral theory and
research on such topics as absenteeism, exit, voice, loyalty and neglect, and the literature on
organizational justice.
PRESENTEEISM;
A CAMOUFIAGED PRODUCTIVITY HAMPER AUTHOR - Cary cooper JOURNAL -HRM
Review, The Icfai University of Chennai.
Employers all over the world are concerned about increasing the productivity in their
organizations but presenteeism shatters the employers dream of achieving maximum profit
through productivity. This article explores in detail the reasons for presnteeism and how to win
presenteeism.
Presenteeism speaks about an employee coming to the organization with problems like
coughing, sneezing, chronic back pain, etc. It is opposite to absenteeism, where in an employee
intentionally absents himself /herself from work. Cary cooper coined the following reasons for
presenteeism.
Perfect attendance; employees want to maintain perfect attendance which later helps
them in promotion and salary hike during the performance appraisal process. Employees
are more concerned about their salary and do not want to miss a fat pay just by staying at
home because of cold or milled fever.
Employees do not get paid for sick days. Employers feel that paying an employee who is
on leave due to some physical illness is a loss.
Sense of responsibility; this allows the employees not to sit at home and take rest. Project
managers or team leaders mostly feel that they have to be present at their workplace
despite feeling sick because someone will be in need of their help or guidance.
Employees also feel that there is no one to cover their workload.
Concern about job security; it plays a vital role in prsnteeism.An employee who often
takes a sick day might naturally lose his/her career advancement.
When an employee is sick, he/she feels that they have a lot of pending work to be
finished and that they take, the fewer are there vacation days. vacation days are the most
important to any employee working eight hours a day and six hours a week as he /she
can spend this vacation time with his/her family.
Employee is the back born of the industry without them they cannot get profit .so
the study of employee absenteeism is needed.
REASERCH METHODOLGY:
RESEARCH
Research refers to search for knowledge. Research is an original contribution to the existing
stock of knowledge making for its advancement. It is the pursuit of truth with the help of study,
observation, comparison and experiment. In short, the search for knowledge through objective
and systematic method of finding solution of the problem is research.
Type of data:
Data collection consists of identification of sources of data and the use of instrument and
sampling to acquire data. There are two sources of data,
o Primary data
o Secondary data
PRIMARY DATA
Primary data are those which are collected afresh and for the first time, and thus happened to be
original in character. In case of descriptive research, research performs survey whether sample
survey or census survey, thus we obtain primary data either through:
Observation
Direct communication with respondent
Personal interview
SECONDARY DATA
Secondary data are those which have already been collected by someone else and have already
been passed through statistical process. Some sources of secondary data are Internet, web pages
and blogs, Published Printed Sources, Published Electronic Sources, Unpublished Personal
Records, Governement Records, Public Sector Records.
In these two types of data I had use both primary and secondary data in my study.
SAMPLING METHOD:
By using of primary data my sample size taken 200 in various departments and secondary data
had been collected through review of literature. company journals
SURVEY TECHNIQUE:
QUESTIONNAIRE:
There had been a set of questions, used as an instrument for seeking relevant information
directly from respondents. The questions pertain to one or more of characteristics of the
respondent, like behaviour, demographic, knowledge, opinions, attitudes, beliefs and feelings.
TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES
In my study I had use the following tool for analysis i.e.,
Percentage analysis
Target Population:The study targets the staff of Hyundai Motors India Limited, Sriperumbudur Taluk,
Kanchipuram District, Tamil Nadu
SAMPLING DESIGN:Sampling is the process of obtaining about an entire population by examining only a part of it.
Sampling plans calls for three decisions.
a
Sample unit
Sample size
Sampling procedure
The design to be adopted for the study will be based on convenient sampling. The population for
the study will consist of employees in the Hyundai Motors India Limited
SAMPLE UNIT: Hyundai Motors India Limited, Sriperumbudur Taluk, Kanchipuram
SAMPLE SIZE: 200 employees
SAMPLING PROCEDURE:For the study, respondent will be select on the basis of random samplings
SCOPE OF THE STUDY:
It will help to reduce the absenteeism and to earn profit by the increase in manpower.
It reduces the cost and productivity problem, reduce the burden of employees, increase customer
satisfaction and improve the countrys economy.
