ABSENTEEISM
An employee's habit of non-presence at his/her job. Job dissatisfaction, chronic medical problems, or even ongoing personal issues may be the probable cause of absenteeism. Without even any regards to the cause, an employee that already developed a pattern of being absent risks his/her reputation and employment status. However, legal protection applies to some forms of absence and may not be subjected as a ground for termination.
