Las empresas reclaman dejar de pagar las bajas laborales y dar el control a las mutuas para frenar el absentismo
El 80% de los empresarios exigen reformar la legislación mientras un 85% reconocen que no han implantado protocolos preventivos, según un estudio de la Cámara de Comercio
Companies are demanding changes in legislation to curb absenteeism, yet few have taken internal measures to address the issue. A recent survey by Spain's Chamber of Commerce reveals that eight out of ten companies favor strengthening regulations as a key approach to reduce the number of layoffs and absences. However, the majority plan to stop paying the benefit during the leave period and grant more control to patronage mutuals.
This demand clashes with the inaction within their own organizations, as nearly 85% acknowledge not having implemented internal protocols to mitigate the problem among their workforce. The survey highlights how business responses prioritize legal reforms and sideline preventive plans and other factors that can influence absenteeism, such as wages, working conditions, labor risks, and difficulties in accessing healthcare.
