Decision Rule:
Reject the null hypothesis if F>+5.56: otherwise, do not reject the null hypothesis.

Computations:
SSA = 4(13.75-12.11)2+5(10.2-12.11)2+5(16-12.11)2+4(8.5-12.11)2 = 156.79

Conclusion:
Reject the null hypothesis, +13.40>+5.56; which means that there is enough evidence to proove that there is a significant d

Recommendation:
To prevent the exploitation of sick leaves, the president must reorient the managers regarding the policy and make necess
adjustments to tailor it to a more accurate and strict policy. The adjustments may be in terms of the requirement to avail a
leave or even by changing the maximum number sick leaves.
