Hello All,
For attrition rate, the formula is the number of employees who left divided by the average of the total employees at the start of the month and the total number of employees at the end of the month, multiplied by 100. For employee turnover, it is the number of employees who left divided by the total number of employees at the end of the month, multiplied by 100 (in case we calculate it on a monthly basis).
Thanks

Dear Suhani,
The attrition formula is A/(B+C-A)*100.
Where:
A = Number of employees left in the month
B = Number of employees on the 1st day of the month
C = Newly joined during the month
Number of employees left in the month / (Number of employees on the 1st day of the month + additions during the month - employees who left) * 100.
For yearly calculation:
Number of employees left during the year / (Number of employees on the 1st of January + additions during the year up to 31st December - employees who left during the year) * 100.

Dear Members,
Can you please guide me on whether we should consider the employees present for the month or the actual number of positions when calculating the attrition each month?
For example, if a department has 10 positions, should the opening balance be 10 for every month, or should the closing balance of the previous month be the opening balance of the next month?

Hi,
You can do it in two ways. In my view, attrition is of two types: monthly attrition and annual attrition. However, you will always be more interested in annual attrition. For that, you may annualize each month's actual attrition to reach the average attrition at the end of the year. This will give you the correct picture throughout the year, and you can keep an eye on the end figure of annual attrition. It's just like the run rate per over in cricket, so that at the end of 50 overs, you know what your total score will be.
One formula we may use is:
(Total employees resigned / average headcount) * (12 / number of months you have completed in that financial year) * 100
To explain, suppose after the end of 4 months, the total number of resignations is 200. The total headcount in these 4 months is 3000, 3050, 3075, 3065. So, the annualized attrition will be (200 / 3047) * (1 / 42) * 100 = 19%.
That means your attrition after 4 months is 19%, and after 12 months will be 19%. Next month, you can check considering 5 months and see if it has increased or decreased.

Hi,
The attached attrition calculation will not be helpful to work out an exact report. For example, if the Open Head Count is 100, attrition is 50, and new joiners are 0, then the attrition rate will be 50% for the particular month. However, in your attachment, it is incorrectly calculated.

(Fact Checked)-The correct method for calculating attrition rate is to consider the actual number of positions for the month, not the total number of positions. The closing balance of the previous month should be the opening balance of the next month. (1 Acknowledge point)
