Save money
Absenteeism is an ongoing issue in the UK, where employees frequently miss work beyond acceptable levels. In 2023, absenteeism linked to financial distress cost UK employers an estimated £3.7 billion, an increase from £2.5 billion in 2021 (Aegon, 2024).
Over the past two years, 12% of employees have taken time off due to financial concerns, with each employee missing nearly five workdays annually on average. With a daily cost of approximately £237, these absences can quickly add up. Additionally, the absence of one team member can impact the productivity of others, further increasing costs for businesses.
