This study presents the findings of a primary data collection effort through a survey questionnaire aimed at investigating the relationship between job embeddedness (JE), tardiness (TAR), and absenteeism (ABS) among academic staff at KUST. The survey included demographic information in its first section, covering the characteristics of the respondents. The independent variable, job embeddedness, was assessed through seven questions in the third section, while tardiness and absenteeism were examined through three and two questions, respectively. Analysis of the questionnaire data revealed several noteworthy conclusions. The academic staff at KUST demonstrated a high level of job embeddedness, coupled with low levels of tardiness and absenteeism, suggesting a positive and robust connection with the organization. Notably, job embeddedness has been a relatively understudied topic in existing literature, making this research a valuable contribution to understanding its implications. The study underscores the importance of job embeddedness in meeting employees' demands and serving as a strategic retention strategy. It is suggested that KUST's ability to minimize negative outcomes among employees, such as tardiness and absenteeism, relies on fostering job embeddedness. The research establishes job embeddedness as a pivotal factor influencing employees' intention to arrive at work promptly and avoid absenteeism. Furthermore, the results indicate a negative and significant correlation between job embeddedness and both tardiness and absenteeism. The study recommends that KUST should prioritize attention to job embeddedness as a key factor in achieving organizational success. The negative and significant effect of job embeddedness on tardiness and absenteeism reinforces the importance of cultivating a workplace environment that promotes employees' attachment to their roles.

e19002 Background: Treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) includes intensive chemotherapy and/or hematopoietic stem cell transplant, and patients usually require extended hospital stays and absence from work. Caregivers may also take workplace absence to provide care during and after treatment. As data on the indirect burden of AML are underreported, we aimed to understand the impact of work absenteeism (ABS) and disability days among patients with AML and caregivers. Methods: This non-interventional, retrospective analysis of healthcare claims data was conducted using MarketScan Databases containing ABS data. Two cohorts were analyzed: patients newly diagnosed with AML between January 1, 2009 and December 1, 2019 (index period), and caregivers with an adult family member newly diagnosed with AML during the index period. All participants were full-time employees, aged 18–64 years, and had ≥12 months of continuous enrollment prior to index date and ≥30 days of continuous enrollment after index date. The index date was the date of first AML diagnosis for patients, or the date of the linked family member’s first AML diagnosis for caregivers. Participants were followed for ≥30 days up to 3 years, until the end of continuous enrollment, end of database eligibility, or end of the study period. Participants who were pregnant or in families with > 1 member with AML were excluded. Days of work loss and associated wage loss were calculated for each work loss type: ABS, short-term disability (STD), and long-term disability (LTD). Results: This analysis included 1,037 patients with AML and 781 caregivers. From baseline to follow-up (FU) period, the proportion of patients reporting ABS numerically decreased from 72.8% to 62.7% (p = 0.054), and changes in ABS days per patient per month (PPPM) (2.21– 2.10, p = 0.735) or ABS-related wage loss PPPM ($562–$511, p = 0.516) were not statistically significant. However, the proportion of patients reporting STD and LTD significantly increased (24.6%–50.0%, p < 0.001, and 4.0%–20.0%, p < 0.001, respectively). The number of days PPPM lost due to STD and LTD significantly increased (0.85–4.94, p < 0.001, and 0.24–1.40, p < 0.001), as did STD- and LTD-related wage loss PPPM ($203–$1194, p < 0.001, and $57–$330, p < 0.001). Among caregivers, the proportion reporting ABS and ABS days PPPM were similar between baseline and FU periods (83.2%–83.9%, p = 0.871, and 2.41–2.64, p = 0.315). The proportion of caregivers with STD claims significantly increased (5.4%–11.8%, p < 0.001), and days PPPM lost due to STD and associated wage loss PPPM numerically increased (0.15–0.25, p = 0.057 and $38–$60, p = 0.087). Conclusions: Following AML diagnosis, the proportion of patients with STD and LTD leave increased significantly, while absenteeism did not change significantly. Days of STD leave also increased among caregivers. Future research is needed to determine how work loss varies by AML treatment type and/or sequencing.

Productivity Loss and Indirect Burden of Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome in the United States.

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major metabolic disorder currently affecting over 350 million people worldwide. Also, another one billion people in the world are pre-diabetic, who may eventually end up with full- blown diabetes. The disorder is rapidly increasing out of proportion in both developed and developing countries, especially T2DM, which is associated with modern lifestyle habits such as reduced physical activity, diet, obesity and genetic factors. If left untreated, DM can lead to a number of diseases and long-term complications leading subsequently to death. In Saudi Arabia national healthcare burden because of diabetes is likely to exceed $0.87 billion; it omits the indirect costs associated with diabetes, such as absenteeism, loss of productivity from disease-related complications, unemployment due to disability and early mortality by disease. Complications of diabetes mellitus include problems that develop rapidly (acute) or over time (chronic) and may affect many organ systems. The complications of diabetes can dramatically impair quality of life and cause long-lasting disability. Aim of the study: To assess the level of knowledge regarding complications of diabetes mellitus and associated factors among type 2 diabetic patients. Method: cross sectional descriptive study conducted at among Patients with diabetes mellitus in the Diabetic Center in Al-Noor Hospital, 2020. The Sample size of diabetic patients attending in the Diabetic Center. Our total participants were (300). Results: most of the participants (26.6%) were in the age group 45-50 years the majority of them were males (81.2%), most of participants married were (81.2%), occupation the majority of participant are working were (78.0%). Knowledge of the participant toward diabetes and Practices average (43.2%, 43.8%) while attitude the majority of participant in negative attitude (93.2%), that is a significant relation between knowledge and demographic data regarding age, gender and duration of diabetes mellitus P-value=<0.001. A significant relation between practices and demographic data regarding age, marital status and duration P-value=<0.001. A significant relation between attitude and demographic data regarding age, gender and duration of diabetes mellitus P-value=<0.001. Conclusion: Chronic complications of DM are caused largely by HG-induced cellular and molecular impairment of neural and vascular structure and function. HG-induced oxidative stress is a major contributor in the development of long-term complications of DM. DM-induced neuropathy and angiopathy, in turn, may lead to the dysfunction of cells, tissues and organ systems.

Ülkemizde Roman öğrenciler arasında okula devamsızlığın büyük bir sorun olduğu bilinmektedir. Çalışmamız ile Kırklareli İlinde Roman çocukların eğitimini sürdürdüğü Vali Faik Üstün İlkokulu öğrencilerinin okula devamsızlık sebeplerini ortaya koymak ve sorunların çözümüne katkı sağlamak amaçlanmıştır. Vali Faik Üstün İlkokuluna kayıtlı öğrencinin yaşadığı 189 haneye 05.12.2016- 31.12.2016 tarihleri arasında gidilerek aileleriyle sahada görüşülmüştür. Okulla ilgili devamsızlık sebeplerini ortaya koyacak Veli Anketleri, Sosyal Hizmet Alan Tarama Formu, Öğrenci Devam Anketi uygulanmıştır. Analizde tanımlayıcı istatistikler ve ki-kare testleri kullanılmıştır. İstatistiki anlamlılığın belirlenmesinde p değerinin 0,05’in altında olan değerler anlamlı kabul edilmiştir. Araştırmanın yapıldığı hanedeki babaların %13,7’si (n =24) okuryazar değil iken, annelerin %43,5’inin (n=80) okuryazar olmadığı görülmüştür. Ebeveynlerin eğitimsiz olması, hanede yaşlı birey ve engelli birey bulunması okula devamsızlık sorununda istatistiki olarak anlamlı düzeyde etkili bulunmuştur (p&amp;lt;0,05). Çalışmada Roman öğrenci devamsızlığının öncelikle aileye özgü faktörlerden, kısmen de öğrenciye, okula, topluma özgü diğer faktörlerden kaynaklandığı görülmüştür. Ebeveynlere, çocuklarının okula devamsızlığında kendilerinin de önemli bir rol oynadıkları, bir tutum değişikliği sağlanana kadar ısrarla anlatılmalıdır

The aim of this paper is to report the findings on the daily lives of anxious and non-anxious adolescents from the perspective of parents, to establish any differences or similarities. Although research around anxiety disorders amongst adolescents is broad, little research has captured parental reports of anxiety disorders amongst adolescents. Hence, this gap is addressed. The data was collected using a 21-item questionnaire that was distributed online to parents of 13-15-year-old children. Data came from 120 parents who completed the survey. 95% were Mothers and 4.2% were Fathers. 45.8% of adolescents referred to in this study had a diagnosed anxiety disorder while 53.3% of children mentioned in the survey were not diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. 66.7% were female and 33.3% were male. An ordinal logistic regression test showed that having a diagnosed anxiety disorder or not influenced everyday life quality (P=.000). There was a negative correlation between the quality of the parent-child relationship and their views on the importance of discussing their child’s personal feelings. Adolescents with an anxiety disorder had a higher rate of school absenteeism over the course of a month than non-anxious adolescents. Anxious adolescents have a lower daily life quality that non-anxious adolescents.

Lower Volunteer Absenteeism

El propósito de esta investigación es analizar las relaciones entre las condiciones de contratación y el absentismo laboral en una muestra de 5524 trabajadores, con el fin de identificar qué segmentos (por tipo de contrato y jornada, tiempo contratado, antigüedad en la empresa y bajas por enfermedad ocurridas en los tres últimos años) están más relacionados con la posibilidad de sufrir un proceso de enfermedad en el año 2017. Se realizaron análisis descriptivos, la prueba chi-cuadrado para tablas de contingencia con dos muestras independientes y los árboles de decisión, basados en el algoritmo CHAID (Chi-squared Automatic Interaction Detection), para detectar las variables más importantes en la identificación de perfiles con una mayor probabilidad de sufrir una incapacidad temporal. Los resultados ponen de manifiesto la existencia de diferencias entre las variables estudiadas. Se considera la modalidad de contratación un factor de riesgo importante del absentismo laboral. The purpose of this research is to analyze the relationship between hiring conditions and work absenteeism in a sample of 5.524 workers in order to identify which segments (by type of contract and workday, time hired, seniority in the company and sick leaves occurred in the last three years) are more related to the possibility of suffering a disease process in 2017. Descriptive analyzes, the chi-square test for contingency tables with two independent samples, and the decision trees based on the CHAID algorithm (Chi-squared Automatic Interaction Detection) were carried out to detect the most important variables in the identification of profiles with a greater probability of suffering a temporary disability. The results show the existence of differences between the variables studied. The hiring modality is considered an important risk factor for work absenteeism.

Background: Healthcare in Haiti is fragmented and inadequate to meet the needs of its people, especially children. This weak health system can have serious implications for children’s health, leading to decreased attendance in school. Chronic absenteeism means students get less education and are at risk of poorer education outcomes. Since education has the power to change generational cycles of poverty and change life for children who might otherwise be exposed to child labor, gangs, or trafficking, programs to improve school attendance are critical. Objective: The goal of this …

Recent studies point to work-related stress as an increasing problem for knowledge workers. This is a critical and not fully uncovered problem. The working life in knowledge-intensive companies is often described as good and stimulating. This study shows that some aspects of knowledge work can have a negative impact on daily activities and cause frustration and workrelated stress. The study also finds that few primary preventive activities have been initiated. Based on an empirical study, the authors outline the characteristics of the job as knowledge worker and how it is being experienced. The study also points out the activities causing the problems, how the problems are managed, and the reason for the approach used. The study and conclusions are based on qualitative research in five knowledge-intensive companies. Knowledge work is described simultaneously in both positive and negative terms – it can be both exciting and stressful. With regard to causes, it is evident that the strains of knowledge work are often caused by the organization and management of the knowledge worker. Autonomy and individualized responsibility causes both a formal and informal transfer of responsibility to the individual for his or her working life. Self-managed knowledge workers thus experience that they stand alone when it comes to work-related problems and stress. The stress intervention applied is characteristically short-term and focused on the individual. The individual perspective consequently affects the long-term prevention, which focuses on changing the organizational and managerial circumstances. It is however possible to change this approach, if both managers and employees become aware of the problems and see the impact of their consequences. If working processes were optimized, the various benefits could be reduced absenteeism and turnover, higher productivity etc.

Abstract Background: TNBC disproportionally affects younger women and is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women under 40. Treatment burden likely has a greater impact in younger women given employment and/or parental status. Little is known about treatment-related healthcare utilization, costs, or absenteeism or disability in women with mTNBC. This study describes real-world treatment patterns and the economic burden of mTNBC among patients treated with a first line (1L) chemotherapy. Methods: A retrospective cohort analysis of IBM MarketScan(R) Commercial and Medicare Supplemental Claims Databases was conducted. The analysis included adult female patients diagnosed with mTNBC who initiated 1L therapy from 1/1/2011 - 9/30/2017. Patients were continuously enrolled with medical and pharmacy benefits &amp;gt; 6 months prior to mTNBC diagnosis date and the start of 1L chemotherapy (index date) and for 3 mos after the index date. End of 1L was defined by treatment change, discontinuation (&amp;gt;60-day gap), or inpatient death or hospice. Patient follow-up was from the index date to the end of continuous enrollment or the end of the study period, 12/31/2017. Baseline demographic, clinical characteristics and per patient per month (PPPM) healthcare utilization and costs were analyzed descriptively. Indirect productivity burden of mTNBC using employed patient’s absenteeism (ABS), short-term disability (STD), and long-term disability (LTD) are reported. All costs are 2017 US dollars. Results: 1,027 patients with mTNBC meeting eligibility criteria were identified. Median age was 55 years; 69.5% of women were ages 45 - 64. Mean Charlson Comorbidity Index score was 8.8. Of the 27 1L treatments observed, the 3 most common were cyclophosphamide/doxorubicin (44.7%), cyclophosphamide/docetaxel (10.1%), and paclitaxel (7.7%). Median time to treatment post diagnosis was 27 days. Observed median follow-up time was 271 days; 13.2% of patients remained on 1L chemotherapy to end of follow-up. Mean duration of 1L treatment was 86 days (SD, 67 days); 69.2% of patients had a change in 1L treatment. For all-cause healthcare utilization during 1L, 11.6% patients had an inpatient admission, 16.9% had an ED visit, and 98.0% had an outpatient visit, of which 80.7%, 52.7%, and 98.8% were breast cancer-related, respectively. Mean all-cause total healthcare costs and outpatient prescription costs were $17,727 (SD $13,701) and $10,861 (SD $10,136) PPPM, respectively. Of breast cancer-related treatments, all patients received chemotherapy, 4.9% received radiation therapy, 1.2% underwent breast cancer surgery, and 96.5% received supportive care. The mean total breast cancer-related treatment cost was $10,322 (SD $9,512) PPPM. At 6 months post-index, 56 patients (5.5%) had either ABS, STD, or LTD data eligibility. Of this subset, 4 (7.1%) patients had an ABS claim and missed an average of 245 work-hours and had a mean productivity loss of $6,472. STD and LTD claims were available for 14 (25.0%) and 4 (7.1%) patients who experienced an average of 63 and 76 work-days lost and a mean loss of $9,265 and $11,192, respectively. Conclusion: Patients with mTNBC continue to experience significant treatment burden. Moreover, though many therapies were observed, limited long term treatment options are available suggesting a need for a durable treatment options that also minimize the burden for patients.

Dyskryminacja ze względu na niepełnosprawność a rozwiązanie umowy o pracę z przyczyn obiektywnych w oparciu o kryteria wydajności i absencji

The study sought to investigate the factors influencing indisciplinary behaviour among students in Senior High School (SHS) and to find means of eradicating such behaviours. The study had the intention of helping teachers, school administrators, students and parents to better understand the problem of indiscipline, its effects and to jointly find solution to them. The simple random sampling was used to select the Bantama Sub-Metropolis. All three SHS, teachers and students in the sub-Metropolis were used for the study. Simple frequency counts and percentages were used to analyze the research questions to come out with the findings. The study indicated that all the respondents saw indiscipline as a major problem among SHS students. It was also clear that the common indisciplinary acts in schools included absenteeism, stealing, bullying, alcoholism, lateness and running away from school to town. Among the recommendations included the revision of outmoded school rules and regulations to suit current modern trends. Article visualizations:
