This paper presents an approach to assessing presenteeism (on-the-job productivity loss) that is related to perceived work ability. The aim of this explorative research was to find out if perceived work ability could be a robust indicator, interchangeable with presenteeism, in Finnish food industry organizations. The developed approach was based on existing presenteeism research as well as on register and survey data. The approach demonstrates that one step downward on the 10-point perceived work ability scale theoretically reduces employees' on-the-job productivity by ˜5 percentage points. At the company level, on-the-job productivity loss was 3.7% (mdn 0), while sickness absence was 5.0% (mdn 2.2). The probability of productivity loss among factory workers was fourfold compared to women in office work. The developed approach makes it possible to assess perceived productivity loss at the level of an individual and an organization. Perceived work ability may, in fact, be a robust indicator for assessing perceived productivity loss.
本文提出了一种评估与工作感知能力相关的出勤主义（在职生产力损失）的方法。本探索性研究的目的是确定工作感知能力是否可以成为芬兰食品行业组织中出勤主义的可靠指标，是否可以相互替代。所开发的方法基于现有的出勤主义研究以及登记和调查数据。该方法表明，在感知工作能力量表上下降一个等级，理论上会使员工的在职生产力降低约 5 个百分点。在公司层面，在职生产力损失为 3.7%（中位数 0），而病假为 5.0%（中位数 2.2）。与办公室工作的女性相比，工厂工人的生产力损失的可能性是其四倍。所开发的方法可以评估个人和组织层面的感知生产力损失。工作感知能力实际上可能是评估感知生产力损失的可靠指标。
