The practice of being absent, also denominated as “absenteeism”, is used to refer to the absences of employees at work, being for unjustified reasons or not. Several are the factors that influence absenteeism, such as health, career plan, people management and social questions and due to its complexity, it becomes is difficult to manage it, thus requiring constant attention from the organizations. To be competitive in a demanding market, the organizations should act in the prevention of the causes that lead to absences from work and thereby increase productive capacity. The greatest “heritage asset” of a company is its staff and only an efficient People Management is capable of promoting a harmonious relationship between staff and the organization in the quest for development. The research was conducted in an industry in the region of Maringá-Pr, through documentary verification aiming identifying and evaluating the impacts of employee absences at work, considering absences as unexcused fouls or not. After data compilation, it became evident that absenteeism has its major causes, according to the International Classification of Diseases - CID 10, related to CID M (Musculoskeletal and connective tissue diseases) and CID Z (Factors that influence health status and contact with health services) and that the factors that lead to absenteeism are specific to the individual’s culture, region and must be treated separately. The results of the studies in the company generated some actions that reduced the absenteeism rate from 11% in 2014 and from almost 18% in 2015 to approximately 4% in 2016. This leads us to conclude that programs implemented as 5S, Participation of Results Program (PPR), basic food basket, internal promotion, occupational medicine and ergonomics, provided a significant reduction in the absenteeism rate.
