Find Your Cost of Turnover
COST OF EMPLOYEE TURNOVER
How much does employee turnover cost my organization?
Most leaders are familiar with the “Direct Costs” to replace an employee. Interviewing, new hire processing, training, benefits, are a few of the easily identifiable hiring costs that quickly add up. They are the measurable time and expenses related to employee separation.
What some don’t realize is that Direct Costs amount to only about one-third of the TOTAL cost of employee turnover. Any good Employee Turnover Cost calculation captures the typical turnover variables and precisely calculates BOTH “Direct” and “Indirect Cost” of turnover.
No one writes a check to ‘turnover’, but they pay it in 100 small ways every day.
