Agreed that this is a problem. Gone are the days when employees and (if I may say, employers) value the "loyalty" factor - to day it is money....people change jobs over a few thousand rupees just across a lunch table...
While we we many interesting suggestions coming up, I belive attempts to address "attitudes" issues through soft skills more so, at the induction time, could be tried out. All technocrats or IT specialists need not necessarily be good "managers" with "ability to address human relations issues" whereas, their job demands such skills. If people are hired based only on their "technical" skills and the "human relations" skill is not upto the mark, we face problems of day to day conflicts. I agree that a certain percentage of attrition may be because people are leaving bosses and not organizations!

When s/he feels comfortable in his/her work, its more than any other monetary, fringe benefit to an employee. Comfort in the sense pleasant physical and stress free work environment :). Regards Hari

Hi Ajithaa,
I have another idea with me. To Retain an Employee he has to be given constructive stress. I name the following as constructive stress:-
1. Music at Office.
2. Encourage them in book reading habits.
3. Provide them a Musical Concert occasionally in one evening.
