BRITAIN'S EMPLOYEES take an average of eight-and-a-half days off work a year sick, which costs the nation's companies £11bn a year.
The figures, from a new survey by the Confederation of British Industry, also showed that people working in the public sector each took off two days more than employees of private firms, with 197 million working days lost in 2008. The statistics do not include paid or public holidays.
The report shows smokers are likely to take 1.77 extra sick days every year, costing £1.1 billion and the loss of productivity through cigarette breaks costs £1 billion every year.
