Business Law Case Study 1
Business Law Case Study 1
A mini survey on the quality of work has recently been carried out as a pilot and the raw data from the first three departments, Research & Design, Administration and Marketing has just been collected. The People Practice manager has asked you to represent the data as percentages and analyse the survey results.
- Review the sets of raw numerical data that have been provided in the tables below and convert them to percentages to illustrate the results.
- Provide an analysis of these, identifying themes, patterns and trends that appear to be occurring.
As a part of this analysis, consider the possible issues that have been revealed by the data.
- Calculate how many working days are lost in a three-month period for each department based on the above figures.
- Estimate the projected average loss of working days over a 12-month period if these rates were to continue.
- Calculate the costs of pay assuming all absentees are contractually paid full remuneration whilst off sick during the three-month period. (1.4)
