Departmental Impact of Turnover Survey (2005)
In Execuserve's first national survey, hiring managers were surveyed on the departmental impact of employee attrition.
Sales was selected overwhelmingly as the top department for turnover, chosen by close to 1/3 of the recipients as their number one choice.
Over 60% of hiring managers surveyed indicated that the improved economy will increase turnover and over 80% of respondents feel that turnover will have a direct impact on revenue.
Almost one quarter of respondents (20.9%) have taken no steps to reduce attrition. However, others surveyed have pointed to various benefits, bonuses and training programs as a way of keeping staff members on board.
69% feel behavioral knowledge of a job seeker would help them make a better hire.
