People Insight Study Reveals the Key to Employee Retention
[ad_1]
London, UK] [December 2019]— Employee survey and HR consultancy providers, People Insight, have carried out extensive research to answer the pressing question — what is the key to employee retention? Why do some employees stick with organisations while others jump ship?
Armed with data from their extensive employee survey database, People Insight carried out a statistical analysis and found that as well as career development and interesting work, the number one reason employees stay at companies relates to company purpose.
The research was prompted by the fact that employee retention is a pressing concern for most businesses, especially in light of record low unemployment rates and the war for talent raging.
“Our employee research has long demonstrated the importance of a role that’s interesting and challenging, with opportunities for career development as critical to employee engagement. However, by looking at intention to stay as a statistical endpoint, we’ve found that company purpose nudges ahead as a key driver. This provides critical evidence for our colleagues as we drive for our organisations to become more purpose-led .”
— Carolyn Nevitte, Director, People Insight
People Insight have released a free online resource detailing the results of this study. The report also includes insights and quotes from a number of CEOs, MDs and business founders, along with a YouGov survey that explores how engaged and motivated today’s workforce are with their company purpose.
