HR Glossary

What is Attendance Policy?

A formal HR document that defines expectations for employee work attendance, including work hours, tardiness thresholds, absence reporting procedures, and consequences for non-compliance.

Why it matters in hiring

Attendance Policy comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
