Authors : Zebouchi Mohamed Abderraouf . Tibourtine Lilia .

Abstract

This article aims to identify the main causes of absenteeism in the workplace within public enterprises. To achieve this, we conducted a series of exploratory interviews with a sample of ten (10) employees. Upon reviewing the obtained results, we identified two (02) organizational variables as the root causes of absenteeism at work: Organizational commitment and work motivation. After constructing the analysis model, we referred to the literature to extract measurement scales suitable for each of the mentioned variables. Finally, we developed a questionnaire distributed on the social network "LinkedIn" to a sample of 180 professionals from various public enterprises. This article intends to be a practical contribution to enhancing knowledge in this field.
