Productivity Loss

 

Understanding staff productivity and performance has long been a focus

 

of academics and businesses alike. Due to its obvious implications for

 

organizational success and relative ease of measurement, the initial

 

research focus was on absenteeism, which is defined as not turning up

 

for work. Presenteeism, on the other hand, has recently gotten a lot of

 

attention because it's been hypothesized that it causes more overall

 

productivity loss than absenteeism. In the literature, presenteeism is

 

characterized in a variety of ways, but it is most commonly defined as

 

being at work with reduced performance, productivity, and job quality

 

owing to a health problem or injury.

 

   Employment attitude refers to a person's feelings, beliefs, and devotion

 

to their job. According to research, it is mostly governed by job

 

characteristics, but it can also be influenced by a worker's personality or

 

emotional moods.   Furthermore, occupational features may have an

 

impact on lifestyle, as well as physical and mental health, affecting

 

productivity indirectly and emphasizing the importance of considering all

 

factors at the same time.

 

  Physical and mental health, lifestyle, personal and family circumstances,

 

relationships, work strain or employment, and workplace characteristics

 

are just a few of the elements that have been proposed and empirically

 

evaluated as predictors of productivity loss.

 

  Workplace involvement has gotten a lot of attention in the empirical

 

literature, and it's been demonstrated to have a big impact on

 

productivity. This article gives novel perspective into

​

understanding employee productivity in this study by constructing a new

 

conceptual model to supplement simpler frameworks evaluated in the

 

literature. This is made feasible by utilizing the

​

granularity of the 2017 Britain's Healthiest Workplace study, which

 

provides precise information on a wide range of socioeconomic and

 

workplace parameters, as well as a variety of personal and

​

institutional variables for over 30,000 employees.
