Anyone who’s experienced high employee turnover knows how frustrating the effects can be. Projects fall behind schedule. Employee morale starts to dip. Hiring budgets start to grow. Everything gets thrown out of whack – a high turnover rate is tough.

So the question remains: how can an organization implement meaningful, lasting strategies to reduce employee turnover?

The solutions start earlier than you might think. A high turnover rate often correlates to warning signs that may have been missed in the hiring process.
