One meta-analysis showed that age and turnover were negatively related. That is, older employees quit less often than did younger employees. Similarly, a second meta-analysis indicated that age was inversely related to both voluntary (a day at the beach) and involuntary (sick day) absenteeism. Results from these two meta-analyses suggest managers should focus more attention on the turnover and absenteeism among younger workers than among older workers.
