Soaring absenteeism and skyrocketing costs

60 %

Absenteeism for psychological reasons

In France, absenteeism for psychological reasons has risen by 60% in ten years.

In addition to the disruption it causes, its cost is becoming abysmal for some companies. And the situation is set to get even worse with the forthcoming reforms.

The forthcoming reform

From April 1, 2025, the ceiling for sick leave compensation (via the payment of IJSS) will fall from 1.8 SMIC to 1.4 SMIC. For employees benefiting from the employer's supplement, companies will have to compensate for the reduction in IJSS.

To limit these costs, the most effective solution is to adopt a preventive approach to reduce absenteeism at source.
