Cam Solutions - SA companies to lose R3.3bn today - New

An absenteeism specialist has said South African companies will lose about R3.3 billion today while their voters cast ballots in the general election. Port Elizabeth based company, Cam Solutions, said companies should remember that public holidays are different than other absenteeism. CEO Johnny Johnson said public holidays often result in employees taking the day around the holiday as sick leave so that they can have a long weekend.
