Sažetak
The distribution of periodicity of weekly rest and its consequences have been studied in a factory operating in three shifts, where the weekly rests do not take place on Sundays, hut are spread all over the week including Sunday.
This analysis has shown as follows:
1. The weekly rests are usually granted either successively or after a longer period of time, i. e. the weekly rests are not granted periodically and the distribution of periodicity of weekly rests is rather large (δ = 5,97).
2. The weekly rests are not granted as they ought to be, so that the average labour week is longer than it is justified or permitted. The average weekly rest takes place every 9,02 day.
3. The weekly rests are not planned equally, so that the number of workers having weekly rest varies greatly from day to day. i. e. there is a huge daily variation Ln the total number of workers having weekly rest.
4. Variations of the total amount of weekly rests on different days are not caused by any other form of absenteeism.
5. Variations in the number of weekly rests represent the major part of the total of variations of all forms of absenteeism.
6. The weekly rests take place on the days when the other forms of absenteeism are most frequent.
7. The above mentioned distribution of weekly rests 'increases the number of accidents at work. On an average, the accidents at work take place 6.31 days after the previous weekly rests (M = 6,31).
8. The above mentioned distribution of weekly rests is likely to cause a lower quality of production and considerable financial losses.
9. This distribution of weekly rests probably influences the increase of other forms of absenteeism and exerts a negative influence on working morale.
In order to improve the existing state, the following measures are recommended:
1. To introduce an efficient recording of all the forms of absenteeism and other relating data.
2. To schedule the weekly rests so as to distribute them equally, in equal periods of time.
3. To inform the workers about the scheduled days of weekly rests.
4. To schedule the distribution of annual vacation in order to make the equal distribution of weekly rests possible.
