Literature Review

Brian S. Kales/26 September 2002/http://www.science direct.com

Data were collected on the monthly level of absenteeism and grievance activity over an 8-year period from a unionized organization. The results suggest that the direction of the relationship varies substantially in association with the nature of the grievance. Although statistically significant increases in absenteeism occurred in association with policy grievances, statistically significant decreases in absenteeism occurred in the month following disciplinary grievances and negative outcomes from disciplinary grievances
