SUMMARY:TALAHour: Measuring the Impact of Absenteeism and Employee Injuries on NOI
DESCRIPTION:Did you know: In a 50-bed community\, losing just one full-time CNA shift per day to unplanned absenteeism can cost over $40K per year\, depending on how it’s backfilled. Lost time injuries are an often-overlooked cause of absenteeism\, and the assisted living industry has 3x the lost time injury rate as manufacturing and construction. Join insurance and HR professionals from Insurica and Method HRM for ideas on how to reduce operational risk. Registration coming soon.
