Employees absconding from the organisation after a merger

Hello Senior HRs!

I am Aisha, working as an HR intern in the theatre industry. Recently, many employees have been absconding from our organization after a merger was declared. This trend is particularly noticeable among the ground-level staff. Could you please suggest ways for me to figure out why they are leaving and what possible factors are leading to this?

Dear Friend,

This situation is commonly faced by many organizations during mergers. It creates a negative impression on employees, leading to various concerns such as:

1. How will the new company treat us?
2. What changes will occur in the management plan?
3. Will our compensation be secure in the long run?
4. How will the company's performance be affected?

As an HR professional, it is crucial to maintain open communication and transparency with employees.
