Jeffrey Mosher discusses Employee Retention with Erin McKenzie, manager of the BRN, (Business Resource Network), CAMW!'s MVP for July 2019.

What is employee retention?

Simply, employee retention is a company’s or corporation's ability to find and keep employees. Physical, mental and financial health are all crucial to maintain or improve retention.

Why does employee retention matter?

Employee turnover is expensive. The cost of opening a position, interviewing and training a new employee could be $3,500 or more. It pays to care about employees’ health and wellness. When an employees’ needs — childcare, transportation and more — are met, they are able to be more successful at work.

What can companies do to improve employee retention?

One of the most important things you can do for your employees is to listen to them. Send out surveys or host a focus group that explores your employees’ needs and wants in the workplace. Additionally, consider implementing programs and policies to increase employee retention such as:

● Offering employees the flexibility to work from home a few days a month.

● Discussing paid time off to create an environment where employees feel comfortable taking time to rest and refresh.

● Developing wellness programs to encourage physical health.
