Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) June 20, 2005 --- Ceridian, a leader in managed human resource outsourcing solutions that maximize the value of people (www.myceridian.com), today announced a group of new and expanded products that will enable companies to better manage and administer their employee absence management processes.
Ceridian's absence management solution features an automated self-tracking solution as well as a full service outsourcing solution to track and manage all types of absences: Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) of 1993, state leave laws, employer authorized policies, vacation/paid time off and company attendance policies.

A 100 percent Web-deployed product, it interacts with STD and workers' compensation administrators and tracks which absences should be classified as such. With all absence data in one system, businesses can easily create reports that have been difficult, if not impossible, to compile.
