Effective employee absence management is crucial for maintaining productivity, compliance, and workforce well-being. UKG Absence Management offers a comprehensive solution for tracking, managing, and analyzing employee leave. This ensures organizations minimize disruptions while complying with labor laws and company policies.
By automating absence requests, integrating with payroll operations, and providing real-time insights, UKG helps companies reduce administrative burdens and improve workforce planning. This article explores the key features of UKG Absence Management and how it supports a more efficient workplace.
Understanding Employee Absence
Inaccurate or inefficient employee absence management can result in lost productivity and an increased need for replacement workers. Without tailored workforce attendance systems, organizations risk failing to comply with collective bargaining agreements and government regulations.
On average, 35% of payroll operations, including direct and indirect costs, are linked to employee absence. Employee absence can significantly impact an organization’s overall productivity and bottom line. By understanding the root causes of employee absence, companies can facilitate effective absence management and ensure employees are paid correctly for their time.
Effective Strategies for Absence Management
Implementing a comprehensive absence management policy and automating core leave administration tasks can help reduce absenteeism, minimize administrative burdens, and improve productivity. UKG’s workforce management solutions connect critical operations like time and attendance, absence management, and payroll in a single application, making it easier for organizations to track and manage employee absences and ensure critical roles are filled.
Intelligent workforce management software provides employees access to critical leave of absence information and self-service tools that can improve employee engagement and reduce administrative tasks. Additionally, regular audits and reviews of employee absence data can help organizations identify key areas for improvement and develop tailored strategies for future absence management.
