title: [Analysis of the duration of absenteeism due to illness and accidents during the year. I. Evaluation of the accuracy of empirical tables].
abstract: The paper presents results of the comparison of empirical distributions of sickness and accidental absenteeism annually. The comparison was based on absenteeism data for all workers of 10 industrial plants representing different industries all over Poland in 1977. The analysis was performed for each sex separately, taking into account only those with absenteeism higher than zero. Distributions in particular age groups have been compared between industrial plants for each sex separately. The results promote adjustment of theoretical probability distributions for age groups, combining workers of all plants in all age groups excluding the youngest, i.e. up to 29 years.
