These factors can reinforce
or drive each other - a problem with one can create or exacerbate
problems in all others.
There are many possible root causes
stemming from uncertain business conditions, the work environment,
and external factors. In such an environment, employees focus
more on their career choices, sense of well being, and personal
safety. Work output and productivity drop. Business suffers.
Ultimately
this can send a company's profits into a downward spiral.
Solution
How to correct employee turnover? Calculating the full cost
of employee attrition is the easy part. Frequently, though,
these types of issues can be addressed more readily and quickly
than is commonly assumed with effective HR retention strategies.
Root causes typically exist in the work environment, people
processes (e.g. performance management) definition or implementation,
communications, and supervisors’ managerial effectiveness.
Lack of inclusion is a factor when only part of the organization
sees and feels these issues at the same time that “everything
is fine” to other groups.
MDB Group addresses these issues using your existing data
and customized climate assessments. Depending upon need, the
assessments might range from simple interviews to extensive
focus groups or surveys.
Getting and using employee input on the issues and potential
solutions is central to our approach. We focus on getting
some visible results quickly while simultaneously addressing
longer-term needs, and on effective communications.
