Answer

How does the weather in Mallorca affect sick leave and work absences?

Mallorca’s mild climate can make commuting and daily routines easier than in places with harsher weather. That may help reduce short-term absences, especially in local service jobs where staff live close to work. Weather is only one factor, though, and it does not explain issues such as stress or temporary contracts.
