Abstract

The article presents findings of a study on the relationship of day care to selected employee work behaviors in the U.S. The data for this study were gathered at the Northside Child Development Center in Minneapolis. The work behaviors of 90 subjects were collected for 20 months. Three indices of work behavior considered were absenteeism, turnover, and job performance. Examination of the monthly turnover and absentee rates revealed that the rates of absenteeism for nonparticipants exhibit greater variability than those for participants or employees in general.
