Frequently asked questions

What is a perfect attendance award?+

It recognises employees who were present on every working day of a period, often with no late marks. Policies differ on whether approved leave counts.

Is it fair to give attendance awards?+

It can be, if the rules do not penalise statutory or medical leave and do not push unwell people to attend. Define the rules clearly in your policy.

What period should attendance awards cover?+

Quarterly or annual periods are common. Monthly periods can be too short to be meaningful.
