Employee Engagement & Retention: Benchmarking Metrics and Networking Opportunity to Help Solve Today's Workforce Challenges
Friday, May 09, 2008
CHAPEL HILL, N.C., May 9 /PRNewswire/ -- The cost to replace an employee
can be as high as 2.41% of annual salary, but the long-term cost to the
organization's Service-Profit Chain is even higher. A benchmarking report by
Best Practices, LLC addresses the effects of turnover on the bottom line and
offers insights on how companies can keep their employees engaged to
tremendously improve productivity and the overall customer experience.
According to data from the report, a reduction in turnover rates by just two
percentage points, can result in a savings of $3 million annually. Depending
on the level of employees (supervisors versus front-line employees) and the
reduction rate, this figure can escalate to savings as high as $40 million
annually.
The full report, "Employee Engagement and the Service-Profit Chain," is
available with a complimentary summary at
http://www3.best-in-class.com/rr942.htm. It highlights the best practices in
identifying and improving drivers that are proving most effective in engaging
employees in their jobs, their companies and their work groups.
