Accidents at work, ordinary or long-term illness, etc., the rate of employee absenteeism has been rising steadily over the past 5 years in hospitals: + 19% for all stoppages combined.
With an increase of 19% for all types of stoppages (accidents at work, ordinary illness, long illness / long term, etc.), the absenteeism rate in French hospitals has been skyrocketing for 5 years! It thus stood at 12.9% in 2014 for the 140,000 agents surveyed by the company SHAM in a 2015 Risk Panorama.

In addition, the number of days of absence per employee employee increased significantly (+ 14%) to reach 54 days in 2014. The study shows that for 100 agents employed there will be 72 stops.
To explain this figure, which seems high, the authors point out that the long illness / long duration is largely ahead.
In the end, at least one in two agents will stop at least once a year.
Finally, for agents who are victims of an occupational accident, an analysis by the Ministry of Health recently showed that nurses and nursing assistants are the two professions most frequently affected by these hospital accidents. Catering was the safest job in the hospital!
