Apparently, it’s crucial for organizations to decrease turnover rates. In order to reduce it, organizations must first recognize the key reasons. The subsequent list of reasons would help you know them:

Rude behavior
Everyday humiliations have an adverse effect on productivity. Blaming, rudeness, ego and revenges are the reasons that intensify employee turnover in organizations. Mistreating employees leads to a negative work environment. It worsens the situation when your company is already on the verge of losses.

Work-life Imbalance
To increase productivity and achieve business targets, organizations demand one person to perform work more than his/her capacity. It heavily influences their work and personal life. When an employee gives more than 8 hours, it naturally starts affecting his/her personal life. Eventually, it increase the stress level and affects the quality of work. 

Meeting Expectations
Interview is a face of the company for an interviewee. He/she judges what the company can offer in the future and what will be the possibilities of success here. Initial descriptions and promises help making the mind of interviewee whether to go with the job or not. If he/she finds any differences between the words said at interview and actions later, it destroys the retention. 
   
Training & Feedback
It’s all about how a manager improve the performance of employees through constant training and feedbacks. Training helps them understand what exactly the assigned tasks required to perform. Feedbacks helps them know how they are performing. Ultimately, it facilitates organization to achieve their goals. Lack of training affects the confidence level of employees despite their proficiency level as every assigned task requires different professional approach.

Promotions & Rewards
Over the years, studies have revealed that money isn’t usually the key reason employee leave an organization. There are different other crucial factors which collectively influence the retention.  However, money stand high when employees can find other job paying 25 to 30% more. Promotions and raises are morale booster and build confidence as well. 

What makes you able to decide the reason of employee attrition is what you still has not implemented putting yourself in your employees’ shoes. You must think that way!
