Well, I expect a sense of maturity and intelligence from my fellow HR Professionals.
Have empathy. Put yourself in the shoes of your employer and they examine, what he is doing.
Do you know know how much does it cost to send an employee for onsite project? You cann't have "tricks" to reduce attrition but you need to formulate "strategies". All big companies have this strategy. Like TCS, they send all their employees (Technical or Finctional) to USA for six months. Only people who serves the organization for 18 months are eligable and one is asked to sign a bond for two years. This is fair-enough.
Another, good company send their employees for SAP Training to Siemens, and they also take bond for one year.
Here, none of us is doing any charity. If the company is doing something for their employers...they want something in return.
Today, we say that there is no career and growth in BPO's. How it can be? Companies can give you career or growth, only if you are giving stability and consistent production.
Look at the bigger picture.
