Managing Staff Turnover and Retention - What You Need to Know: Definitions, Best Practices, Benefits and Practical Solutions Synopsis

In a human resources context, turnover or staff turnover or labour turnover is the rate at which an employer gains and loses employees. Simple ways to describe it are "e;"e;how long employees tend to stay"e;"e; or "e;"e;the rate of traffic through the revolving door."e;"e; Turnover is measured for individual companies and for their industry as a whole. If an employer is said to have a high turnover relative to its competitors, it means that employees of that company have a shorter average tenure than those of other companies in the same industry. High turnover may be harmful to a company's productivity if skilled workers are often leaving and the worker population contains a high percentage of novice workers.
