Employee Turnover In human resources context, employee turnover is the rate at which

an employer gains and loses employees.

Simple ways to describe it are "how long employees tend to stay" or "the rate of traffic through the revolving door".

If an employer is said to have a high turnover relative to its competitors, it means that employees of that company have a shorter average tenure than those of other companies in the same industry.

High turnover may be harmful to a company's productivity if skilled workers are often leaving.

Defining HR Retention

The extent to which an employee is committed to his work and his organization, and

the extent to which this commitment impacts his performance and intent to stay with the organization.”

9

Defining HR RetentionHR Retention is the total of the behaviour employees

espouse in the organisation which primarily should be characterised by:

Belief in the organisation Drive to work and make things better Respect and support for others Desire to learn new skills

10

High-Turnover to High Retention

“Here Today, Here Tomorrow”

Transforming your workforce from High-Turnover to High Retention.

To do this we need first to look at the main reasons for;

Why Do People Stay?

11

Retention is Commitment Based

Rational Commitment: Employees believe they will personally and professionally

benefit from the organization.

It makes sense for them to stay with the organization.

12

Rational Commitment Driven By:

Remuneration Incentives Career growth opportunities Health benefits Work environment Learning and development opportunities Work-life balance

13

Retention is Commitment Based

Emotional Commitment: Believing in, valuing, or enjoying their day-to-day work,

teams, managers or organizations.

Because they can make a link between their role and organizational objectives and value system, and they enjoy or find fulfillment in the work

14

Emotional Commitment Driven by:

Enjoyment of one’s job Role clarity Understanding the link between one’s job and

organisational strategy Belief in organisational values Respect manager, team and organisation

Emotional Commitment Drives Discretionary Effort - Performance

15

Role Based Levels of RetentionThere are five work related roles that an employee can assume and these are: Job Holder Role: employees come to work and do the job that is

listed in their job description.

Team member role: employees go “above and beyond” to help members of their team work toward common goals.

Entrepreneur role: employees come up with new ideas and processes and try to get those ideas implemented.

Career role: employees do things to enhance their career in the organisation; they learn, they adapt new skills, and more.

Organisation member role: employees do things that promote and help the company even if it’s not part of their jobs or their team’s duties.

Employee Engagement Drives Business Results

Hire the Right People

How Do You Know What the RIGHT Person Looks Like?

18

Why Good People Quit?

19

Why Good People Quit

Poor match between the person and the job

Poor fit with the organizational climate and culture

Poor alignment between pay and performance

Poor connections between the individual, their coworkers, and the supervisor

Poor opportunities for growth and advancement

20

Typical Hiring Practices

Failure to detect motivational fit with job Applicants "exaggerate" to get a job Most hiring decisions made by intuition during the

first few minutes of the interview  Two out of three hires prove to be a bad fit within the

first year Most interviewers not properly trained Excellent employees placed in the wrong jobs grow

frustrated when unable to utilize their strengths

21

Key Finding

22

Money may attract people to the front door but

something else is needed to keep them from going out

the back.
