How To Ensure Your Employee Stays On The Job?

It is important that employees stay on the company payroll longer.

High staff turnover is very disruptive for a business, the continuity of work flow is badly affected.

My experience told me about high staff turnover:

It caused:

• Breakdown of internal control and
• Loss of crucial information.

However this can be easily avoided if staff retention rate is high
