STRATEGIES FOR EMPLOYEE RETENTION It is no secret that employee retention has become a challenge for many businesses in recent years. A very important part of ensuring that the right systems are in place for transformational business success is for employees to work in a happy, productive, and healthy environment. The cost of replacing an employee can be significant, and it is important for businesses to take steps to retain their employees. Ensuring that your employees work at their best means that you create the right environment for them. One way this can be achieved is by developing the right employee retention strategy. An employee retention strategy is the efforts that companies make to reduce employee turnover rates. These efforts include company programs and policies that can boost your business's chances of attracting and retaining qualified employees. Here are some strategies that you can put in place for the best results: Hire the right personnel. Having the right people on your team is as important as having a company itself. You want to ensure that your employees fit properly into the role and understand the vision and requirements of the company and role, respectively. Choosing the right candidate goes a long way in affecting the company both short term and long term. Lower-level employees are more likely to leave the company if they don't understand their roles properly, aren't fit enough to work in the role, or don't work well with the leadership. Ensure that the job description describes the expected experience, qualifications, and skills for the role clearly. Provide a competitive salary and benefits. When employees believe they're being paid their worth for the work they do, they have more motivation to stay with the company. Ensure that you not only provide a competitive salary to your employees but you also give them added benefits like insurance, memberships, retirement accounts, etc., which can also compensate for less competitive salaries. Equip the managers. Employees may not have direct access to you, but one thing you can ensure is that the leaders and managers of teams are efficient enough. Focus on training your managers with the right soft and hard skills to manage and motivate the employees to do the right work correctly. If you have hired valuable employees, you need to ensure that they're placed under the right managers who will not only support their growth but also increase their retention probability. 4. Encourage communication and employee engagement. One of the major root causes of internal issues in an organization is a lack of communication or miscommunication between employers and employees
