An absence target is a specific level of sickness absence that the employer sets as a goal, to reduce the level of absence within the organisation.
Employers should decide what a realistic absence target for their organisation is. They may decide to have one overall target for the organisation as a whole, and different targets for different areas (or locations) of the business.
