Harbor Warehouse Absences — Column Chart

This column chart compares a specific measure across a short list of categories or periods. Every bar starts at the same zero baseline, so height provides a direct visual comparison of the reported values. The title and y-axis unit make the scope clear, while labels provide exact values for readers who need them. The example is designed for a report, planning meeting or presentation where a small number of comparisons matter more than a dense time series. The values should be checked against their source before decisions are made. If the central question is a continuous trend across many dates, a line chart may communicate the pattern more effectively.
