Are you finding it difficult to attract and retain qualified employees?
Is employee turnover impacting your organization’s ability to serve
customers and maintain productivity and employee morale? Or, are you
already successful in these areas and want to ensure that you continue
that level of success? If you answered YES to any of these questions,
you would benefit from learning about becoming a Choice Employer!
The cost of employee turnover can drain an organization’s financial and
human assets. Surveys indicate that employee turnover can cost a company
100% to 200% or more of an employee’s salary, not to mention what is lost
in knowledge and experience. And, a recent report titled “The War for
Talent” stated that over the next 20 years, employee talent will be what
differentiates successful companies and those going bust. Are you ready?
Simply defined, a
Choice Employer is a term used to designate an
organization that, because of its status and reputation, is always
the first choice (or at least on the short list) of world-class candidates.
It essentially means being able to provide employees with the most enjoyable
and fulfilling working environment as possible and balancing this with their
home and personal life. It will attract talented employees eagerly to your
doorstep or send them directly to your competition costing you time, effort,
and dollars, which simply can’t be measured.
Our new program, Becoming a Choice Employer: Attracting &
Retaining World-Class Employee Talent, examines the process of
reaching and maintaining your organization’s status of Choice Employer.
