Causes of Coal Miner Absenteeism.

Publication Date 1987
Personal Author Peters, R. H.; Randolph, R. F.
Page Count 51
Abstract The Bureau of Mines report describes several significant problems associated with absenteeism among underground coal miners. The vast empirical literature on employee absenteeism is reviewed, and a conceptual model of the factors that cause absenteeism among miners is presented. Portions of the model were empirically tested by performing correlational and multiple regression analyses on data collected from a group of 64 underground coal miners. The results of these tests are presented and discussed.
