Writer's picture: Vaishnavi BahetiVaishnavi Baheti

There is never a better time to look for work than when you have a job that pays well: Employers are frequently shown to favour candidates who are employed, especially when there is a chance to steal talent from a rival, according to studies.


Therefore, it is not surprising that retention is constantly a top priority for HR teams and corporate leaders. In addition to the inconvenience caused by losing an excellent person and the high expenses associated with finding, hiring, and training a successor, when a long-term employee goes, institutional and customer expertise also go.




Employment Turnover


A data-driven method of determining how many workers are leaving the organization and why is tracking employee turnover rates. Total separations from the company are referred to as turnover, which includes both voluntary and involuntary turnover. People who left the organization voluntarily do so for a variety of reasons, such as to pursue new employment possibilities, personal reasons, educational opportunities, or retirement. People who were fired due to poor behavior or performance are included in the category of involuntary turnover, as are those who were laid off seasonally or as part of a larger force reduction.


4 Causes Of Employee Turnover


The good news is that high personnel turnover can be avoided. The biggest causes for your business can be attacked by taking action. Here are some of the main reasons why people leave.


1) Lack of purpose


According to LinkedIn's Talent Trends Survey, turnover rates were 49% lower at businesses with meaningful missions. Companies with "purposeful missions" excel at motivating their staff, transforming them into living, breathing extensions of the brand. These businesses have strong cultures, understand how their product or service improves the world, and have strong corporate cultures. When a company's workforce supports its vision and purpose and employees see the value in the job the company conducts, it can typically retain talent even in the face of low employee engagement.


2) Poor compensation


Compensation and perks are a significant factor in why people quit a firm, particularly for younger employees: According to the LinkedIn poll, pay and benefits are the main causes of job switching. According to Glassdoor, employees typically earn 5.2% more when they change jobs. If your business pays at the top of the range, you make hiring new employees expensive.


3) Being overworked


Employees experience burnout when they are required to accomplish duties without being provided with the tools they need to be successful, when they feel powerless, or when they routinely deal with more stress each day than they can handle. Burnout combines tiredness on an emotional as well as a physical level with a sense of helplessness and self-blame, and it can show itself as behavioral and physical problems.


4) Manager problems


There has been a great deal written about toxic managers—those that prefer certain employees over others, play favorites, or even mistreat their subordinates. Additionally, businesses must eliminate these individuals. Less obvious are managers who perform poorly in their positions.


Many of the leading causes of turnover—poor pay or work-life balance, insufficient training, and few opportunities for career advancement—depend on the manager.


Attempts to alter culture frequently begin with the best of intentions: Teams establish procedures to ensure that the organization's mission, values, and desired public perception are clear to everybody. However, without the support of the leadership, developing culture is a difficult nut to crack.
