Absenteeism is one of the phenomena that most concern organizations insofar as it influences their performance entails costs and contributes to lowering the morale of regular workers. Personal and family issues are pointed out with the main reasons to justify unplanned absenteeism.

This investigation presents a case study carried out in a local authority, Moibe Municipality, in order to try to understand the causes associated with absenteeism in this institution and to propose measures that help in combating this problem in order to provide the best quality of attendance to the citizens and to reduce operating costs.
