Abstract: Abstract This was a study conducted between August 2009 and February 2010, in which 279 working adults participated. Of this sample, 268 (96 per cent) reported to have engaged in presenteeism behaviour. The cost of presenteeism for each of the health conditions examined was included in the study, which primarily focused on the impact of chronic and non-chronic health conditions on presenteeism. The study also examined the extent of presenteeism between executive and non-executive employees.
