Rolle of HR on staff retention
Description
Employee
retention is employees choose to stay on with their current company and not expecting other job prospect. For a company to succeed, employers need to keep
their best employees on board. This is the goal of employee retention: an
organization’s concerted efforts to retain their existing staff
Why staff retention is important for a business
1) Sustained
productivity flow
Professionals who work
for long periods in an organization add significant value to the company. They
understand the company’s vision at a deep level and know well how to fulfil
their role’s expectations.
2) Reduce
company costs.
Retaining skilled and
reliable employees is financially beneficial for an organization. Recruiting
new staff is expensive and time-consuming with lower employee turnover costs,
companies can invest to more other parts of the business.
3) Reduce
training time
Long-term employees are
highly trained and feel confident to carry out their daily responsibilities.
They have built effective communication channels with their manager and
colleagues and know how to deliver their duty on time. New employees require
training and time to adapt to the new environment and its requirements, which
can strain team productivity temporarily.
How HR involve on the above matter
a. Compensation
and benefits:
Can attract
a good candidate by offering them a competitive salary and basic benefits (e.g.,
health insurance, discounts for wellness programs), Rewarding employees based
on their performance
b. Training and
career development:
Offering
learning and training opportunities is also a huge motivator for employee retention.
Employees can acquire new knowledge by attending interesting seminars and
courses to develop professionally.
