Predicting Staff Turnover
Abstract
The rate at which staff change jobs has long posed a serious problem for employers in the private and public sectors. Generally speaking, staff turnover breaks the stability, consistency and continuity of work, makes long‐term planning more difficult, leads to shortages of staff which in turn can raise the workloads of other employees, and raises the costs of recruiting and training staff. Fluctuating turnover rates make long‐term manpower planning extremely difficult, and can spark off a spiralling series of staffing problems and difficulties.
