Commentary: ‘Excessive’ MCs – the real question is why absenteeism is still seen as worse than presenteeism

However, for pleasure can be a double-edged weapon. This, according to critics, makes a weak work ethic possible and reduces employee accountability. Are the specialists actually to blame for giving people the benefit of the doubt? &nbsp,

VICIOUS CYCLE OF WORKPLACE Conviction

A deep-rooted lack of trust between employers and employees is more likely to be at the root of the problem.

The more likely are employees to promote the perception of a lack of trust the more employers problem their integrity.

Since COVID-19 required employers to give people house and consent to some cross plans post-pandemic, faith has been put to the test. But out of fear distant people might not be working, some organisations resorted to security, such as tracking their keyboard activity. &nbsp,

Employees responded by purchasing mouse jigglers, a USB-based computer that periodically records keyboard cursor movements, to make their website or messaging apps available for download.

Mistrust breeds more distrust. Employees who feel micromanaged, devalued or disrespected are more susceptible to “playing the system”.

Another way to accomplish that is to take MCs when they are n’t ill. According to a number of organizational psychology analysis reports, less engaged employees are more likely to call in sick more often.
