Encouraging appropriate time off can help reduce presenteeism—when employees work while unwell—ultimately protecting productivity and health in the workplace.

Productivity loss from presenteeism can account for 28% of total productivity loss in organizations, with estimates suggesting that between 25% and 50% of workers report experiencing presenteeism during the year (source: WEF). This occurs when employees continue working while unwell, leading to reduced efficiency, errors, and longer recovery times. It often stems from factors like workplace pressure, insufficient sick leave, or a lack of support for employee health. Addressing presenteeism requires fostering a work culture where employees feel safe taking time off when needed, ultimately improving both their well-being and overall productivity.
