Employee turnover spiraling out of control?

Employee turnover is like spiraling stairs














How effective is your organisation right now at attracting and retaining talent?

Let’s use a scale of 1 to 10:

1 Really ineffective

5 Not great but doing some things well

10 Really effective

Not sure yet where your organisation belongs?

We’ll give you some insight into what a ‘Highly ineffective retention organisation’ looks like – that’s a 1/10 on our scale.

So, what does a 1/10 look like? An organisation is highly ineffective at retaining talent if it…

Loses lots of new recruits
Loses a disproportionate % of high performers
Loses an increasing % of all staff
Experiences increasing grievances
Fields increasing customer complaints
Records increasing compliance breaches

Records increases in safety problems
Loses staff for 70%+ ‘Push’ factors #
Low Retention Index (our measure of intended tenure)
