What is "Avoidable" turnover?
Employee turnover is normal. Employees come and go for many reasons, including personal reasons and reasons that have nothing to do with a specific company. In addition, turnover is known to be high in some industries and for some job types. So how much can a company actually do to improve retention? This differs from company to company but we estimate this number. For Lohika, we estimate average tenue could be increased by 160 days with effective retention programs. We base this number on a comparison of Lohika to other similar companies.
What is driving turnover at Lohika?
Employee turnover at Lohika is primarily driven by employee seniority and in-demand employee skills. The employees at this company have been in their career for a longer period of time than average. Employees who have been with the company for a longer period of time are less likely to leave than employees who have been with the company for a shorter period of time. There are a few possible reasons for this. First, employees who have been with the company for a longer period of time are likely to have developed a sense of loyalty to the company and its employees. Second, employees who have been with the company longer have found a way to contribute to their company in a way they find satisfying. The skills demanded by this company are not in high demand by the market. Employees are more likely to stick around with a company that has fewer high-demand skills, since there is less competition for employees with such skills. Similarly, companies that focus on skills training for their employees are more likely to have low employee turnover. This is because employees stay with a company that they know is investing in their development, and they know that they have the opportunity to grow with the company. Overall, employee turnover is a common phenomenon, and it can be tough to combat. However, by focusing on skills development and training, companies can decrease the turnover rate and keep their employees happy and productive.
Methodology
The numbers reported here are based on statistical analysis of publicly available employment data of current and past employees of the company. We determine mean tenure based on how long past employees have stayed at the company and how long current employees have been employed. We determine the annual turnover percentage as (1/tenure * 100). We analyse a sample of the employees at a company. We make an effort to sample in a representative way but some bias is unavoidable. Some types of employees may be overrepresented in our sample based on their job, their online activity, and their geographic location. We expect our number to have a confidence interval of approximately 1 year. In other words, if the mean tenure reported is 4 years, the true value lies between 3 and 5 with 98% confidence. Similarly if the average turnover reported is 20% we expect the true value to be between 15% and 25%.
