Based on that, the absence of the employees from work leads to deterioration and reduce production in the institutions which leads to heavy losses. There are many reasons why employees are absent from work. Those may include health problems and social occasions. The purpose of this paper was to apply machine learning techniques to predict the absenteeism at work. There are four methods have been used in this research ( neural network(NN) technique ,decision tree (DT) technique, support vector machine (SVM) technique and logistic regression (LR) technique. . decision tree model has the highest accuracy equals to 83.33% with AUC 0.834 and the support vector machine has the lowest accuracy equals to 68.47 % with AUC 0.760.
