Description:

Turnover happens. Whether workers feel unappreciated, desire better pay and benefits, or are simply looking for better career opportunities elsewhere, employee turnover is bad for business.  According to Gartner, U.S. annual voluntary employee turnover increased by 20% in 2022 from the pre-pandemic annual average.  While some turnover will always exist within an organization, high turnover damages morale, company culture, and the bottom line. Having a solid staff retention strategy in place is essential.  A majority of turnover is preventable by employers. If your organization is experiencing employee burnout, low employee engagement, lost productivity, and a higher turnover rate than you’d like, it’s time to take action... AND everybody has a part to play.  Factors like a strong economy or competitive labor market are out of your control, but there are steps you can take today to boost your retention rate and improve employee morale.
