Modern workplace CR

by joindk Sun Jul 29, 2012 9:33 pm

A poll of 3,000 adults found that those under-30s are twice as likely to miss work because of illness as their older colleagues. It also emerged that the under-30s took time off because of stress, tiredness and feeling run-down while most of those over-55 said it wouldn’t be a reason to call in sick.

The answer to which of the following questions will help in evaluating the claim that the fast-paced modern workplace seems to be taking its toll on younger employees?

A. Whether the survey included sufficient number of aged adults? B. What about the dietary habits of employees?
C. How many industries in the countries to which the survey locations belong use modern workplace?
D. What are the reasons for aged adults to call in sick?
E. Whether the employees were informed beforehand about the survey?

Conclusion is: Modern workplace seems to be taking its toll on younger employees. To evaluate it, I will probably try to see how many workplaces in the survey were actually so called "modern workplace".

Any thoughts?

As per the forum rules, we need a verifiable source for the problem before we can deal with this question. If the question is not one of ours or one that is copyright-free, we will have to delete the question..
