High Attrition in Organizations: Are HR Managers or Company Policies to Blame?

This is the era where hopping jobs has become the trend. For employers, they think one person leaves and another comes in. HR managers have no option but to be ready for alternate choices. When we talk about sustenance or retention, every responsibility falls on the shoulders of managers. It is truly a wonder - who is actually responsible for high attrition? Is it only HR managers, the management, or the policies?

Before assigning responsibility, it is essential to determine the cause of attrition. To identify the causes, you need to: (a) conduct Attrition Analysis and (b) carry out an Employee Engagement Survey (EES). It is crucial to conduct an EES rather than an Employee Satisfaction Survey (ESS) as job satisfaction does not ensure retention. The next step is to calculate the cost of employee attrition. Without understanding the costs, the top management will not be properly informed.

For more information on attrition analysis, please refer to my previous response by clicking on the following link: https://www.citehr.com/519562-employ...ml#post2211229

To conduct an EES, you may need the assistance of an external consultant like myself. If interested, you can avail of my paid services.
