As unemployment continues to decline and job market competition increases, companies in the environmental drilling industry are very much aware of how critical it is to recruit and retain the best employees. But what happens when an employee leaves the company? Even more important, how can we use that turnover as a learning opportunity? If a great employee gives notice, chances are you won’t convince them to stay. However, employee turnover provides an opportunity to learn the causes of attrition.
One key strategy a company can, and should, embrace when managing employee turnover is an exit interview or survey. These important assessment tools identify trends and challenges that your employees may face. Using these tools strategically and sharing the information learned with key business leaders can allow you to correct lingering workplace issues and boost morale, and ultimately lead to higher retention rates.
