Executive Summery:
Productivity or effectiveness of an organization frequently suffers as a result of high level
of absenteeism and worker turnover. There is evidence that all concerned owners,
contractors and workers are interested in resolving problem. This study examines the
source and size of problem and recommendations to reduce it. For this purpose we have
conducted interviews and literature survey in order to investigate the organization
effectiveness.
This report describes an HR management tool for decreasing turnover at Dancom

Communication. High employee turnover is like shrink. It cuts into the bottom line, but
it can be controlled. There are many potential causes for turnover. Certainly, area
economic conditions as well as other factors such as labor market conditions, effect
general turnover rates.
In voluntary turnovers are difficult to directly manage however are voluntary turnover
that can be managed. The purpose of this literature survey is to allocate the important
variables of our existing problem I-e “ How does employee’s turnover affect the
effectiveness of organization”. With the help of these variables we a can assess the
variables related to our problem for structuring theoretical framework. This survey
includes the situation which had occurred in past with others companies and how those
companies deal with these variable means how they solved different problems.
After completing literature survey and defining problem there is need to develop
framework. In it we try to discuss the interrelationship among the variables that are
deemed to be integral to the dynamics of the situation being investigated. Different
variables can affect the effectiveness of organization we are considering all-important
variables that can effect company. After the thorough study of literature survey we
deduct some variables, which can become a cause that can effect the sales and keeping in
mind we make schematic diagram of the theoretical framework so that the reader can see
and easily comprehend the theorized relationship.
The research design, which involves a series of rational decision-making choices, the
various issued involved in the research design, will be discussed here. Like Purpose of
the study, Types of investigation, Extent of researcher interference, Study setting

under hypotheses testing study.
This study that engage in hypotheses testing usually explain the nature of certain
relationships, or establish the differences among groups or the independence of two or

BRM Project
more factor in a situation Causal type of investigation is done, when it is necessary to

establish a definitive cause and effect relationship, however, if the researcher simply
wants a mere identification of the important factors “associated with the problem” then a
correlation study is called. Correlation type of investigation will be suitable for our
research, actually our hypotheses is “ effective compensation has positive impact on
organizational effectiveness” That’s why we select this method to identify the important
factor associated with the problem.
A correlational study is conducted in the natural environment of the organization, with

the researcher interfering minimally with the normal flow of work. Organizational
research can be done in the natural environment where work proceeds normally (no
contrived settings) or in artificial, contrived settings. As we have selected correlational
investigation method with minimum interference, then automatically our study setting
will be no contrived. Its mean our research will be conduct under natural environment.
What we are going to apply in our project that is ratio scale and interval scale because
these scales give maximum accuracy in measuring the variable. Even though the method
we have selected for investigation is correlational that provide less accuracy as compare
to causal. In this project we selected” individuals and organizational” as a unit of
analysis, and this selection is match with the definition of unit of analysis.. Why we
chose probability sampling? Because the sample we get from probability have the quality
of representatives. We have proved that there is positive relation between compensation
and effetiveness.
By increasing the retention rate.
• Retaining hourly employees.
• Improving management retention.
• Training first than promoting.
• Attractive salary packages.
• To motivate employees.

THE RESEARCH PROCESS:

In this section we will discuss each and every step of research process that is:
• Problem Statement
• Broad Problem Area
• Preliminary data gathering
• Theoretical frame work
Generation of hypothesis
• Research design
Data analysis
• Data interpretation
• Conclusion / Deduction
• Recommendation to Management

7 BRM Project
Problem Statement:
“How does employee’s turnover affect the effectiveness of

organization”?

8 BRM Project
Broad Problem Area:

Employee’s turnover is a serious problem in organization and warrants attention. Poor
supervision, unproductive relationships with boss, poor planning, non-attractive
packages, non-motivation and generally poor management are the prime reasons for
turnover. Lower turnover offers a broad range of productivity gains. As the turn over lies
in all the organizations but we have selected one organization (Dancom Company). In
order to implement our concept and knowledge regarding employee’s turnover. What are
the causes of employee turnover? How it causes the ineffectiveness of organizations,
How to reduce it?
In broad problem area our focus is on these three things:
• Background information of the organization

• Company polices
• Perception behavior responses of organization members
In background information in the organization we have origin and history of the company
when it came into being business is in ownership and control. size in term s of
employees, assets purpose and ideology.Background detail of the company we obtained
from published records website of the company.
Employee’s turnover is broad area, which includes skilled and unskilled workers but we
are focusing on skilled workers. Unskilled workers turnovers are immaterial with
assumption of 100% of labor availability in Pakistan. Pakistan being developing country
unemployment is more than other countries. So unskilled workforce is available any
time. So it does not make any contribution to organizational effectiveness. Skilled
workers can effect more the effectiveness of organization.
This study is aimed at the achieving productivity gains in organization through an

improved understanding of causes and effects of turnover, specifically, the study sought
to:
• Verify the problem.
• Analyze the major contributing factors.
• Quantify the costs.
• Offer recommendation for corrective action.

9 BRM Project
Preliminary Data Collection:

How study was made:
A group member of our group was retained to devise a questionnaire, based on team’s
understanding of the practical problems to identify the reason for turnover from workers
perspective. The questionnaire was designed specifically to measure worker or
employees attitude about their job and to investigate underlying causes for turnover.
Preliminary data was collected from different resources to anticipate potential problem.
During survey different employees were asked about voluntary termination.
In order to get information about on project we have used two methods as follows:
1. Interviews
Unstructured interviews
• Questionnaires
2. Literature survey
To conduct interview we have addressed following people:
1. Mr.Jafar Raza
HR Manager
Dancom PVT [Ltd.]
F/8-Islamabad
2. Mr. Waris Niazi

Assistant Manager
Islamabad Stock Exchange
3. Mr.Khushal Khataq

Literature Review
Reason of literature survey
The purpose of this literature survey is to allocate the important variables of our existing
problem I-e “ How does employee’s turnover affect the effectiveness of

manager. Asking employees why they are leaving is generally not a good way to find the
real reason behind their departure. Instead of evaluating employee satisfaction according
to exit interviews, pay attention to the turnover rate. High turnover is the key indicator of
employee dissatisfaction. It takes a lot of effort and risk for an employee to change jobs.
Resigning is the loudest statement they can make to tell you that your management skills
are lacking.
Commit to making every employee feel worthwhile, respected, and revered. You must
not be too busy working in your business to recognize the importance of each and every
one of your employees. One of the Jim Moran Institute's entrepreneurial clients was also
his company's primary salesperson. Because of the huge amount of time he spent selling,
he never had enough time to make his fifteen employees really feel needed and,
consequently, the company experienced high turnover.
Employees can quickly feel less than respected by either abusive bosses or bosses who
are just too busy to give the requisite care. One of the things you can do to help is to
occasionally, tell employees how much you appreciate them. Even better is to tell your
whole company how certain employees have really made a difference. Another thing that
really helps is to make sure you go around and ask employees how they are doing. It all
just boils down to making each and every employee feel worthwhile.
Employee turnover is a good benchmark to evaluate the effectiveness of your

management style. If you are seeing high turnover, your management style may need to
be significantly overhauled.

Employee Turn Over BY: Dr. Blake Frank
Professor at University Of Dallas.
According to new ideas for retaining store-level employees, a study conducted by Dr.
Blake Frank an industrial psychologist and professor at the University of Dallas, for the
Coca-Cola Retailing Research Council. For those in higher paying jobs, the cost of turn
over is also higher.
Symptoms that organization has to face in response of turnover are:
Direct Costs: Advertising, training, interview time, employment testing, new employees
processing, and backgrounds checks.
Opportunity Costs: Change-making errors, mistakes in paperwork, product damage,
shrink and improper use of equipment.
High as these drains on the bottom line are, they do not include the adverse impact on the
quality of service and customer satisfaction, and a store’s consequent loss of sales as
shoppers “vote with their feet” and take their dollars to another store. The Coca-Cola
study asked participants for a rough estimate of the number of customers lost due to
turnover-related factors.

Employee Turnover and Sabotage

A matter of Disposition, Job Satisfaction and Tenure
Understanding an employee's disposition may help predict turnover and purposefully
poor performance. Together disposition and Job tenure along with job dissatisfaction
plays a role in how employees react to stress.
What is positive affectivity
Positive employees are more likely to take a wait and see attitude early in their
employment. But watch out!
Could stress be the reason for turnover and employee poor performance?
Why might it be better, in the long run, to have employees who are low in positive

16 BRM Project
affectivity?
What can be done
Researchers have found that there is a dimension in personality having to do with a
person's outlook on life. Persons high in this dimension are enthusiastic, active, and
happy. These people are generally more satisfied and see life positively. Persons low in
this dimension are the ones with the dark clouds over their heads. Researchers have
named this dimension positive affectivity (PA).
A study of fire fighter and police employees revealed that PA, a person's positive
disposition or lack thereof, in combination with tenure on the job has a bearing on how
employees react to perceived job dissatisfaction. Employees that are low in tenure, high
in PA and who are dissatisfied with their jobs are less likely to seek another job than
those who are low in PA and who also have short tenure and are also dissatisfied.
The high PA and low tenure employee also experiences less stress and less physical
symptoms of stress than does the low PA low tenured employee.
The positive person seems to be able to take the long view. When they first work for an
organization they feel less stress when experiencing dissatisfaction than negative people
do and are able to reframe from taking action to find a different job. They also do not
engage in counter productive behavior at this stage of their tenure with the organization.
But when positive people, who are dissatisfied with their job, stay with an organization
and become long term employees this changes. They are more stressed by job
dissatisfaction, reporting more physical symptoms related to stress, and more likely to
look for a different job and to engage in counter productive work behavior.
The opposite seems to be true of the more negative person, low in PA. When they are
first with an organization and become dissatisfied they seem to experience more stress
and physical symptoms of stress than the more positive employee experiences. They look
for another job or engage in counter productive work behavior. If they decide to stay with
the organization and become long term employees, they become less likely to leave the
organization and less likely to purposely perform poorly.
This is probably because stress reaction and physical symptoms related to job
dissatisfaction are lower for the long-term low PA employee. The person who views life
more on the negative side seems to be able accept that work is dissatisfying and is able to
plod along without either seeking a different job or performing poorly to get back at the
organization. Since they do not expect to find a greener pasture on the other side of the
hill, a negative outlook on life, they do not seek to leave the organization.
What can be done?
Controlling for job dissatisfaction and stress is an organizations only option. Take a good
look at employees who are dissatisfied with their work and see if adjustments in hours,

17 BRM Project
duties or work practices can elevate the situation. Not taking action will mean you will
loose valuable employees. Remember that the remaining dissatisfied employee may
begin to overreact and actually work against you. If you have high turnover among sales
persons and other such jobs even among your long term employees you had better take a
hard look at how employees feel about their supervision, work rules, work environment
and the organization as a whole. It may even be better to help employees make
adjustments in their career path leading to work outside the organization. Thereby
avoiding having employees who feel there is no way out and who may have chosen
sabotage as an outlet for their job dissatisfaction stress.

Employee Turnover
February 7, 2003
By Jerry Osteryoung
"The difference between a boss and a leader: a boss says, 'Go!' - a leader says, 'Let's go!'"
-E. M. Kelly, Growing Disciples, 1995
Recently, an entrepreneur whom I am assisting stated that he had 600 W-2's this year and
he has a full time staff of less than 50. When I questioned him about this rapid employee
turnover, he said it was the nature of the business. At this point I wanted to throttle him
by the neck and yell at him, "Employee turnover is bad, bad, bad!" Rather than risk
rupturing my vocal cords yelling, I sat down and listened to him talk about this problem.
What was most disconcerting about the conversation was that he thought the problem
was systemic with today's labor pool and took very little responsibility for employee
turnover in his own management style. Compensation is also caused the employees
Turnover and reduce the effectiveness.
Most employee turnover is related to poor management practices. Yes, employees are
working for wages, but, more importantly, they are working to have their non-financial
needs met. It's important to understand that employees are seeking to extract something
far more than a paycheck from their work. Most employees need to feel respected,
worthwhile and appreciated in their work. Time after time employees leave when they
feel under-appreciated (sometimes for less money), just to have these more important
needs met. The reverse is true as well - when employees are offered a significantly higher
salary from another company, they don't leave if they are appreciated at their current
workplace.
Most entrepreneurs do not perceive themselves as bad managers. However, a high
employee turnover is a telling detail that an entrepreneur may, in fact, be a horrible es of
personal discomfort and dissatisfaction. While this assessment process is relatively new
to the professional HR literature, it has been shown to dramatically reduce annual
turnover rates. In one organization where this type of process was used, annual turnover
was reduced by 54% (from 168% to approximately 78%). In another organization, the
process lowered annual turnover from 120% to 48% (60% reduction).

18 BRM Project
MANAGING TURNOVER THROUGH SELECTION

There are many potential causes for turnover. Certainly, area economic conditions, as
well as other factors such as labor market conditions, affect general turnover rates. These
more general causes for involuntary turnover are difficult to directly manage. However,
there are certain causes for voluntary turnover that are associated with any specific job in
a given organization (e.g., non-competitive compensation, high stress, unpleasant
physical or interpersonal working conditions, monotony, and poor direct supervision) that
can be managed.
Although considerable research has been published in professional journals that

underscores the relationship among workers’ preferences, job performance, absenteeism,
and voluntary turnover, there has not been much advancement in the field of personnel
selection based on these findings.
One management option for addressing the issue of employee turnover is to change the
job to eliminate negative characteristics, but this often is not feasible or desirable. An
alternative method for reducing turnover is to screen out potential levers during the hiring
process. Organizations can use the information regarding negative job characteristics as
part of their pre-employment screening process in order to identify job candidates who
are likely to have particularly adverse reactions to these characteristics.
The assessment of employees’ sources of job-related discomfort and frustration has

proven to be a powerful predictor of turnover (Bernardin, 1987). Survey results
consistently indicate that workers' negative emotional reactions to job situations do
predict voluntary turnover. Employees in any job have conscious and unconscious
emotional reactions to work. If these reactions are generally positive, an employee is less
likely to quit.
On the other hand, if these reactions are generally negative, an employee is more likely to
quit. One very promising approach for managing turnover is to identify job candidates
who are more likely to have negative reactions to a given job. These candidates can be
screened out early in the hiring process, thus saving further hiring costs, and decreasing
subsequent turnover. Unfortunately, the most frequently used instruments for identifying
such negative job characteristics (e.g., Job Diagnostic Survey, Job Characteristics
Inventory) have little utility for making employment decisions because the scoring
process is relatively transparent to job applicants.
INTRODUCTION TO THE JOB CONGRUENCE SYSTEM (JCS)

19 BRM Project
General psychological inventories and realistic job previews have been used to reduce
turnover, but with varying degrees of success. Traditional personality and interest
inventories are not as successful for identifying candidates who are likely to turnover due
to the ease with which they can be faked during the application process.
Researchers have indicated that deliberate distortion of responses is one of the most
serious problems in the use of instruments designed to measure personality and interest
characteristics. Similarly, realistic job previews are not effective with some job seekers
who are highly motivated to gain employment, because they ignore the negative job
characteristics during the application process, but over time the negative job content
becomes instrumental in the decision to quit.
There is an alternative pre-screening method for reducing employee turnover which has
demonstrated both effectiveness and consistency. The system described here is called the
Job Congruence System (JCS). In HR literature, this general approach has been referred
to as job compatibility or job congruence assessment. The JCS focuses on motivational
characteristics of employees as opposed to traditional assessment of knowledge, skills,
and abilities. The three basic steps of the JCS are,
Identifying specific negative job characteristics which are used to
(2) Create a custom assessment instrument in order to
(3) Screen out individual job candidates who are most likely to have negative reactions to
specific job characteristics.

Theoretical Framework:
After completing literature survey and defining problem there is need to develop
framework. In it we try to discuss the interrelationship among the variables that are
deemed to be integral to the dynamics of the situation being investigated.
IMPORTANT VARIABLELS:
Different variables can affect the effectiveness of organization we are considering all
important variables that can effect company.
SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM
After the thorough study of literature survey we deduct some variables which can
become a cause that can effect the sales and keeping in mind we make schematic diagram
of the theoretical framework so that the reader can see and easily comprehend the
theorized relationship.
A theoretical framework is a conceptual model of how one theorizes or makes logical

sense of relationship among the several factors that have been identified as important to
problem. We will identify and label following variables.
• Dependent variable.
• Independent variable.
• Moderating variable.
Five basic features for theoretical framework:

• Considering variables on relevant to study.
• Relationship between variables.
• Nature of direction of relationship.
• Clear explanation.
• Schematic diagram.

GENERATION OF HYPOTHESIS
Statement of Hypothesis:
First of all, there is a need to make clear understanding with the term of Hypotheses.Its
means that “A formal testable statement” or “any assumption, claim and statement
about population’s characteristics are called Hypothesis”.
A hypothesis can be defined as a logically conjectured relationship between two or
more variables expressed in the form of a testable statement:
Here we have developed hypothesis statement on the basis of our theoretical framework.
And then we will try to proof these statements.
(1) Whether there is positive relationship between compensation and organizational
effectiveness.
(2) Whether there is negative relationship between compensation and employees
turn over.
(3) Does job securities of employee affect the effectiveness of organization?
(4) Do poor planning of employees affect the effectiveness of organization?
Note:
In statement of hypothesis we develop the relationship among different variables but we
found Compensation as most important and discussible so we select it to prove it and
all remaining project will be based on this hypothesis statement.

RESEARCH DESIGN:
The research design, which involves a series of rational decision-making choices, the
various issued involved in the research design, will be discussed here. Like
• Purpose of the study
• Types of investigation
• Extent of researcher interference
• Study setting
• Measurement and measures
• Unit of analysis
• Sampling
• Time horizon
• Data collection method
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY

In business research we have three type of study purpose:
Exploratory study
Descriptive study
Hypotheses testing
But the hypothesis statement, which we are going to proof, it will come under
hypotheses testing study. This study that engage in hypotheses testing usually explain
the nature of certain relationships, or establish the differences among groups or the
independence of two or more factor in a situation.
TYPES OF INVESTIGATION
There are two main type of investigation we have in business research that is:
Causal
Correlation
A researcher should determine whether a causal or a correctional study is needed to find
and test hypotheses on hand. Causal type of investigation is done, when it is necessary
to establish a definitive cause and effect relationship, however, if the researcher simply
wants a mere identification of the important factors “associated with the problem” then a
correlation study is called. Correlational type of investigation will be suitable for our
research, actually our hypotheses is “ effective compensation has positive impact on
organizational effectiveness”That’s why we select this method to identify the important
factor associated with the problem.
EXTENT OF RESEARCHER INTERFERENCE

Interference can be happen in two possible ways in business research
Minimal: studying events as they normally occur
Manipulation: control and simulation

24 BRM Project
As you know, in the type of investigation stage we have selected the correlational
investigation. A correlational study is conducted in the natural environment of the
organization, with the researcher interfering minimally with the normal flow of work.
STUDY SETTING
Organizational research can be done in the natural environment where work proceeds
normally (noncontrived settings) or in artificial, contrived settings. As we have selected
correlational investigation method with minimum interference, then automatically our
study setting will be noncontrived. Its mean our research will be conduct under natural
environment.
MEASUREMENT AND MEASURES

In business research, there is a need to measure variable, which is present in theoretical
framework to test hypotheses. We have four scaling options to measure variable to test
hypotheses.
• Nominal scale
• Ordinal scale
• Interval scale
• Ratio scale
Each scale method has its advantage and disadvantages. What we are going to apply in
our project that is ratio scale and interval scale because these scales give maximum
accuracy in measuring the variable. Even though the method we have selected for
investigation is correlational that provide less accuracy as compare to causal.
UNIT OF ANALYSIS
Unit of analysis means “ the level of aggregation of the data collected during data
analysis”. In business research the unit of analysis can be
• Individuals
• Dyads
• Groups
• Organizations
• Divisions
In this project we selected”individuals and organizational” as a unit of analysis, and
this selection is match with the definition of unit of analysis.

25 BRM Project
SAMPLING
We have two main type of sampling

• Probability sampling
• Non-probability sampling
PROBABILITY SAMPLING
When the elements in the population have a known chance of being chosen as subject in
the sample is call probability sampling
.
NON-PROBABILITY SAMPLING
In non-probability sampling designs, the elements in the population have no probabilities
attached to their being chosen as sample subjects is called non-probabilities.
In short we can say that we are following the probability sampling. Why we chose
probability sampling? Because the sample we get from probability have the quality of
representatives. After choosing the probability sampling, normally we have four purpose
of study that is
:
Genernalizability
Assessing differential parameters in subgroups of population
Collecting information in a localized area.
Gathering more information form a subset of the sample
TIME HORIZON
As far as concern to time horizon of study, we have two-time horizons in organizational
research that is:
• Cross sectional studies/one shot
• Longitudinal studies.
In this project we use one-shot method of time horizon in order to answer a research
problem.

26 BRM Project
DATA COLLECTION METHOD
Data can be collected in a variety of ways in different settings, and form different
sources. Data collection methods include:
• Interviews (face-to-face interview, telephone interviews, computer-assisted

interviews and electronic media)
• Questionnaires
• Observation
• Motivational techniques
During the data collection phase we collected data by using two method that is
questionnaire and interviews (face-to-face interviews). To get the relevant information
according to our problem statement, we designed our questionnaire keeping in mind all
the techniques of questionnaire design. And we used different scale in questionnaire like
dichotomous scale and likert scale etc.
We arranged one structure interview with
Mr.Jafar Raza
HR Manager
Dancom PVT [Ltd.]
F/8-Islamabad
For this we purpose we design another questionnaire for manager. He provides very
useful information, which really assisted a lot to complete, this project.
Structured Interview.
3. What are employees expectations from organization?

4. What is the ratio of employee turnover between skilled and unskilled workers?
5. What are effects of turnover that organization has to face?
6. Do you think discrimination between contracted and percent employees lead to
less or more motivation?
7. What are the factors that make employee loyal?
8. Does overtime unavailability in organization causes turn over?
9. How does flexible hours motivate the employees to stay at the organization?
10. To what extent poor planning the cause the turnover in organization?
11. Does over burden and insecurity regarding the job make hurdle for organization
success?
12. To what extent potential cause for turnover, area economics condition labor
market condition effect general turnover rates?
13. To what extent age difference cause employee turnover?
14. How does employee retention play role in organization?

27 BRM Project
15. How selection method provides unbiased labor force for organization in order to
increase the effectiveness?
16. Do you give any common suggestions and comments on employee’s turnover?

28 BRM Project
In data analysis, we have three objectives:

1. Getting a feel of the data
2. Testing the goodness of data
3. Testing the hypotheses developed for the research
FEEL OF THE DATA:

To approve the hypothesis statement, we applied correlation tools to analysis the data.
Correlation matrix gives an indication of how closely related or unrelated are the
variables under investigation. If they have a high correlation say for example over 0.5
then we will declare as closely related variables
.
TESTING GOODNESS OF DATA:
Testing goodness of the data depend on two thing that is:
1. Reliability
2. Validity
Reliability:
The reliability of a measure is established by testing for both consistency and stability.
For this we have different method like;
1. Cronbach’s alpha
2. Split-half reliability coefficient
3. Parallel form reliability
4. Test –retest reliability
The first two are used to check the consistency and last two to check the stability. During
the data analysis phase, we find that our data result is fulfilling the requirement of
reliability, because Cronbach’s alpha supports the results. Cronbach’s alpha is a
reliability coefficient that indicates how well the items in a set are positively correlated to
one another. The closer Cronbach’s alpha is to 1 the higher the internal consistency
reliability. So our data analysis result is close to 1 the exact answer of data by applying
correlation is 0.85 that shows that data have reliability.
HYPOTHESIS TESTING:
After checking the feel of data and goodness of the data, know we are able to apply
statistical tool to test the hypothesis. In this project, we applied correlation tool to check
the relationship between compensation and organizational effectiveness. The result and
finding will be given in the data interpretation phase

DATA INTERPRETATION:
We have taken the data from the Dancom Communication from the different department
in order to prove that there is relationship between perceived inequalities and
organization effetiveness.we have seen that there is strong positive correlation
that indicate the validity and correctness of instrument and it is obviously clear
that there is strong relationship between these variables .As our purpose was to
check the correlation between these variables as company increases its salary
packages as it gets feedback from the employees side and ultimately organization
go to the success. During our survey it is found that majority of the people leave
the organization due to less wages. Co-relation result of this sample data is 0.85 it
shows a very high relation and between two variables and the results of
population is also matching with sample data. So we can say that better
compensation has great impact on the organization.

36 BRM Project
CONCLUSION / DEDUCTION:
We reach the conclusion that if Dancom wants to increase their effectiveness then they
should give consideration and attention towards effective compensation and also build
strong relationship between employees and employers. As well as other factors concern
we can also consider them equally but they are not so much important as for as
compensation is important. We see that 72% affect the organization and 28% affect the
other variables it mean to say that there other factors as well that make contribution
towards the effectiveness of organization.
Actually they are following centralized style of management and all decisions are made
at top level, there is no participation of middle and line managers in decision making The
Top management should follow the integrative linkage technique for decision making not
in their rooms.
How can You Reduce Turnover?
You begin to reduce turnover not by looking at turnover rates, but by looking at the
retention rate. Turnover rates tell you how many employees have left during the course of
a year.
:
1. Keeping them informed about the company’s long-range plans so that they can
motivate employees to move in that direction.
2. Thorough and continued training in all aspects of their job.
3. The opportunity for advancement.
4. Retaining Hourly Employees.
Improving Management Retention.
5. Create and communicate specific plans to accomplish the mission.
6. Establish a procedure to monitor progress toward the mission. Creating a
scorecard that tracks key performance indicators relating to customers,
employees, suppliers and financial performance can do this.
7. Maintain fare and evenly administered practices.
8. Establish specific procedure for lay of and termination.

37 BRM Project
9. Establish merit based performance review procedure with forms that are job
related trains people how to conduct reviews monitor the review process.
10. Trains first then promote policy.
11. Comprehensive compensation to the employees
12. They should increase their morale through increasing benefits
13. Establishing training program to ensure at least minimum training before the
new job is begun. It advises that list of expectations be prepared for both newly
promoted employees
14. Participation in decision making as well as on important tasks should be

welcomed
