Unit 3: Discussion 22 22 unread replies. 22 22 replies. Introduction Your boss came to you Monday, and noted that absent employees are getting to be a problem and it seems to be getting progressively worse. He did not share his source or analysis for the problem. He asked you to conduct a preliminary diagnosis of HR absentee records and advise him on a way forward in three days. He asked if you think that the organization should appoint an internal “fixer” to get after the problem or hire an outsider. Discussion Topic For the absentee and tardy employee problem, provide a recommendation to your boss and classmates that includes the following: 1. What type of practitioner would you recommend; internal, external, or a team? I would recommend an internal, such as Human Resource Director  If you recommend an internal consultation, what skills and experience would suggest that they bring to the table? The skills I would suggest is that they are objective, be honest, trusting, strong willed, able to speak direct and without fear or nervousness due to the extent of the situation. They need the experience of record keeping, researching, speaking without fear or nervousness and can speak in terms understandable to the employees.  If you recommend an external consultation, conduct a review of Internet sites that offer absentee services. Searching keywords such as absenteeism, technical assistance, and strategic coaching for absentee employees will help locate them. What consultant company would you recommend and why? I would not recommend an outside consultant company as they are not familiar with the organization, will need time to familiarize themselves to be able to research the reasons of each employee and absenteeism.

 If you recommend an internal and external team, what skills and experience would the internal consultant need, and what external company would you recommend for the problem? I would not use a team, just one person. This internal human resource person will need to pull files of the employees with the issues of absentee and tardy, record each and the reasons for each, and then come up with a progress plan that can be implemented with the employee(s) to improve. I would recommend a probation period, showing the employee that there is concern but we are willing to come up with a way to improve and help employee improve.  What ethical issues would concern you about selecting a practitioner for the absentee and tardy employee problem? One ethical issue I would be concerned about in selecting anyone for the absentee and tardy employee problem is that I do not want the employee to feel harassed or discriminated against based on the person’s manner to handle this situation. I also would be concerned with the employee feeling as if there are other employees who are favored.
