compelling justification. Sharma (2009, p. 278) stated that the number one reason people leave their jobs is conflict with their bosses. “The salmon fallacy If 100 salmon are swimming slowly upstream, culling 20 will not enable the remaining 80 to swim any faster. The problem is the prevailing current, not the efforts and abilities of the salmon. The salmon fallacy ignores the environment or organizational setting in which activity takes place. The focus is exclusively on the individual, to the exclusion of the context in which he or she is working.” (Drive, 2002, p.4) Money is a convenient and sometimes,
Most environmental contributors can be directly traced to management practices. Turnover tends to be higher in environment that talented employees cannot contribute to their full potential in a cluttered, top-heavy organisation that blurs accountability, stifles initiative and achievement. Turnover recurs when employees feel they are taken advantage of, undervalued and ignored, or when they feel helpless or unimportant. There is a greater risk of alienation

High employee turnover, where workers frequently leave and must be replaced, leads to increased spending on recruitment and training and can indicate management problems. Employees often have good reasons for moving on but if too many are leaving an organisation, can be very disruptive.
When an employee leaves the company of his or her own volition, it is called voluntary turnover. In this essay, I will discuss why voluntary turnover is a problem for many organisations and how to retain employees.

This report aims to evaluate reasons for high employee turnover rates and introduce effective counter measures to combat losses. I researched a number of peer journals, scholarly reports, and organizational reviews to complete my analysis. I was able to ascertain a few key elements that have proven to be desirable for employees on all levels and develop a clear understanding of elements that push employees away from an organization. This report uses the data I collected to suggest why employees leave and how to keep them.
It has been evident that organizations face challenges of maintaining employees within their firms, and the challenge has been in place for a considerable period. Turnover in firms has been associated with different costs that include the process of training new employees, training of the same employees and their selection which has been seen to seen to exceed 100% of the total cost on an annual basis which is usually witnessed in filling the existing position. The quit rate in the United States as indicated by Bureau of Labor Statistics is at 25% (Glebbeek & Bax, 2004). The significant issues that are associated with turnover include work disruptions, direct costs, loss of seasoned mentors and organizational memory. The other concerns that
In any organization high employee turnover is not cost effective and is time consuming. The credibility of the organization might also be affected if employees do not stay for a good period of time working for them. A good reason employees may resign is being motivated by higher pay. No matter how much someone enjoys working for that organization if better pay is offered somewhere else they will more likely will end up leaving. Every organization must maintain salary competitive by offering comparable pay and benefit packages. In addition to traditional “pay and benefit” compensation, some companies also offer extra perks such as on-site gym, day care, discounts on services or traveling and employee assistance programs. Another reason why employees might resign is that they do not feel engaged. Employees like having job satisfaction, challenges, new duties, recognition, receive positive feedback, new goals and job advancements. If employees feel bored they might leave the organization. High-performing workers need to feel that they are being challenged and are moving forward in terms of professional growth and development. Another reason of turnovers is that employees are poorly managed. A bad boss can make employees feel miserable; if their immediate supervisor creates an uncomfortable work environment they may consider leaving. Employees who are well compensated, challenged, engaged and properly managed will likely be
Turnover has a negative connotation attached to it, with good reason. Not many people would want to tell someone that they have been fired or that they quit their job because maybe they found it hard or going through something which is stopping them from doing the job. There are many reasons for turnover. Explored in this essay is why people work in the first place. From this information, we can get more details of the reasons for turnover and how Australia compares to other countries. But before exploring that we should look at what turnover is, different types of turnover and is turnover always a bad thing? It is then necessary to look at turnover implications for human resource management (HRM). Lastly, it is helpful to look at identify
Rationale: Literature shows the relationship between turnover, job satisfaction, and organization commitment (Devi, Amalraj, & Devi, 2013). As discussed earlier, satisfied people stay more with their company. High turnover rate is a big issue in healthcare industry (Devi, Amalraj, & Devi, 2013) especially with a tight labor market, and aging population (Abrams, 2002).
A high turnover in a few companies is a tremendous issue. An individual that is a manager should be able to understand the requirements of operating a business so that he or she keeps their employee ecstatic. A few reasons that unhappy employees leave their jobs are micromanaging, too many responsibilities, the manager doesn’t engage with his or her workers, promotions are limited within the company, communication, or even constant change within the company.
High turnover rate of minorities and female employees has become a serious issue in the United States. Even though many ethnic races form this country, male Anglo-Saxons dominate the majority of the workforce. It is not uncommon for minority and female employees to leave their company after only working for a few years. Why has this behavior become a trend? In order to stop this trend, companies must ask themselves several questions. For example, what are the issues causing the high turnover rate? What legal and ethical issues are the companies facing? After these questions have been asked and processed, solutions must be implemented to change the flow of the trend.
The employee turnover rate and the retention of skilled employees is a major problem businesses face. “Conservative estimates put the cost of replacing a lost employee at 25 percent of the annual compensation amount. For the typical full time employee who earns $38,481 and receives $50,025 in total compensation, the total cost of turnover would amount to $12,506 per employee.” This being the case employee turnover is a major cost and can significantly influence the bottom line so it should be avoided if possible.

In construction industry employee turnover is always expensive. Not only, employee turnover is expensive in terms of money, but also it is expensive in terms of time due to the exit of a talent, it costs a project time delay, lost of knowledge, and over work to other employees. Mismanagement of human resource can convert a turnover to the disproportionate level. US Bureau of Labor Statics states that, “turnover can cost an organisation about 33% of an employee’s total compensation, including wages and benefits”. When a employee quits it affects other employees adversely and lower down their morale and low morale not only impacts the organisation financially but also it impacts the effectiveness and the efficiency of
