Costs and Causes of Employee Turnover Certification
Employee turnover costs businesses and the economy an astronomical amount of money every year, with some industries particularly vulnerable to its effects.

Therefore, it is imperative that every organisation makes an effort to measure and analyse who is leaving - and why.
