Work absences due to injury or illness and employee retention in the child care services industry before the COVID-19 pandemic / by René Morissette and Hanqing Qiu. : CS11-0019/471E-PDF

"The study shows that about 8% of women employed as ECEAs in the child care services industry had work absences due to injury or illness in 2016. Having such absences in a given year was associated with a greater likelihood of leaving the child care sector during that year and subsequent years. At most 14% of ECEAs who were ill or injured in 2016 left the child care sector that year. Combined with the fact that work absences due to injury or illness are relatively infrequent, this finding has important implications. It suggests that efforts to reduce injury- or illness-related work absences or to eliminate them entirely may reduce, on an annual basis, employees’ departures from the child care sector by at most 1.1 percentage point from a baseline departure rate of 11%. This finding in turn suggests that strategies to increase overall employee retention in this sector will likely have to rely on a broader set of tools than those aimed solely at reducing work absences due to injury or illness"--Abstract, page 6.
