Assessment of Employee Turnover on an Organisations Efficiency In Post Covid Scenario

Abstract

The study found out that the organization was experiencing high cases of employee turnover. Most respondents indicated that lack of retention strategies affected organization productivity to a great extent. Most respondents felt that the organization had employed various measures to manage employee turnover. High rate of employee’s turnover impacted negatively on organization productivity since most of the experienced and highly productive staffs were lost during COVID pandemic and it took a long time before the newly recruited staff. Lack of staff training denied the employees with an opportunity for skills development and this encouraged most of the employees to leave the organization and seek jobs in organization that offered career development opportunities. Organization management was not commitment to Employee skills development and this hampered exposure of employees. The study concluded that causes of employees turnover that impacted negatively on an organisation’s productivity included; lack of employees retention strategies, low level of employee motivation, lack of career development opportunities and poor work environment. The study recommended that the organization human resource management should employ strategic strategies such as job security, salaries and remuneration, providing recognition, and individual growth opportunities. The organization human resource management should provide open communication, offer employee reward program, offer recreation facilities as well as various gifts.
