We examine the strategy to reduce sickness absences of transit drivers in one of the leading Multinational Operators for Local Transport Services in France. Absenteeism dramatically rose as a result of this strategy. Using observations and interviews at the corporate and field levels, and company data, we disentangle the mechanisms that led to this failure. In a context of strong constraints especially from local communities, the strategy based on underlining the costs of absences pushed local units to change their management practices. They focused on chasing short absences, promoted presenteeism and intensified pressure on workers rather than boosting prevention. Eventually, long‐duration sickness leaves massively expanded.

防止旷工助长病假:当地交通服务领先运营商的案例

我们研究了在法国领先的本地运输服务跨国运营商之一中减少运输司机生病缺勤的战略。由于这一策略,缺勤率急剧上升。使用公司和现场层面的观察和访谈以及公司数据,我们解开了导致这次失败的机制。在特别是来自当地社区的强烈限制的背景下,基于强调缺勤成本的战略促使当地单位改变他们的管理做法。他们专注于追赶短期缺勤,提倡出勤并加大对工人的压力,而不是加强预防。最终,长期病叶大规模扩张。
