For the days one decides to show up.
Losing the war against sickies.
Public servants at the government's largest department took more than three weeks off work on average in the past year in "unscheduled absence," mostly sickies.
Public service departments are now forming sickie-busting units as new evidence emerges that the federal bureaucracy is still losing the battle to get its staff to show up for work each day.
The 35,000-strong Human Services has reported another increase in its rate of unscheduled absences with the average full-time public servant at DHS failing to front for work on 16.25 days in the 2013-2014 financial year.
