TOPIC: ARGUMENT92 - The following is a recommendation from the human resources department at Techforce Computer Company."Many working parents report that problems related to their childcare arrangements are a major reason for absenteeism from their jobs. Bridgewell Corporation, a tele-communications company, implemented an on-site childcare program and after one year, the company reported that unscheduled absences had declined by 25 percent. Since Techforce has had an increase in unscheduled employee absences over the past year, we should therefore implement our own on-site childcare program. The program will undoubtedly reduce our unscheduled employee absences, resulting in significantly increased productivity."
Firstly,unscheduled absences may not be caused by childcare arrangements.Maybe it is because the employees of BC themselves do not want to go to work.A important NBA game or a moving film may be the real reason of the absences.Childcare arrangements are the excuses for their absences.
Even think that children is the real reason of the absences,one year is not long enough to confirm that on-site childcare program is useful. May be during this year the employee of BC put their children to dormitory school or to their relatives' home.All these thing can reduce unscheduled absences caused by children.
Further more,the author fails to consider the difference between Bridgewell Corporation(BC) and Techforce Computer Company(TCC).May be the people of BC work longer than people of TCC.They have to work over 8 hours a day that there is  no time for them to deal with the current thing happened to their children.For example they may be called to go to school oneday by accident,as they have to work all day long they have to be absent from work.
What is more,the increase in unscheduled employee absences have no nothing to do with the increase of productivity.The employees may leave their work place after they have done their job.  There is no evidence to prove the idea that absences caused the declining of productivity.
To conclude, this argument is not persuasive as it stands.Before we accpet the conclusion, the arguer must present more facts to prove his idea.
