What is the Bradford factor?
The Bradford factor is a tool used by HR to track, monitor and review absenteeism. The tool was developed in Bradford university and is used widespread in business.
Bradford Formula
The Bradford factor is quite a simplistic tool. Each sick day is recorded, and each separate sick occurrence is also recorded. Once all the data are gathered the formula is applied. The calculation used is as follows: sick days multiplied by sick occurrences, multiplied by sick occurrences. For example, is someone has three separate days off sick, the formula would be = 3*3*3 =27. However, if the person has three consecutive days of sick, the formula would be =3*1*1=3.
