Work absenteeism has become one of the main challenges to the competitiveness of Spanish companies, with a direct impact on work organization, productivity, and business continuity. In this context, Enrique Ceca, an executive partner in the Labor Practice Group, analyzes this phenomenon and the tools available to companies to address its effects from both a legal and organizational perspective.
In the article, the expert points out that absenteeism is no longer a temporary issue but has become a structural challenge for companies. He also explains that, despite the high level of protection for temporary disability in Spain, there are mechanisms that can improve the management of absences, such as standardizing processes, collaborating with mutual insurance companies, analyzing data, and strengthening preventive policies.
As Enrique Ceca points out, “absenteeism requires a shift toward strategic management based on foresight, regulatory compliance, and organizational optimization,” integrating this analysis into human resources policies, occupational risk prevention, and work organization.
