SOURCES OF LOSS • Absenteeism, which includes on-the-job absenteeism, as well as time-off absenteeism. • Accidents resulting in injuries or deaths and consequent compensation. • Time lost due to disciplinary and grievance procedures. • Lowered productivity levels. • Labour turnover resulting in manpower wastage. • Wastage of materials and damage to machines.
Main Assumptions • Personal problems adversely affect human functioning, thus impacting the job performance of both the individual concerned, and that of his co-workers • Unless some form of intervention is initiated, the problems are likely to get worse • Infrastructures which typically exist in an employment environment provide an ideal context for the development of an intervention network • Effective intervention is in the interest of all parties concerned, namely the employer, the employee and his family, employee organizations and the community at large
