Oh boy, the struggle is real! You hire someone, train them up, and poof—off they go!
Welcome to the wild world of The Revolving Door! But fear not, brave business warriors!
Here are some nifty tricks to slow that spin:
· Supportive Environment - Fostering a supportive and engaging work
environment can make a significant difference. Encourage inclusivity and
respect among team members. Try to also resolve conflict quickly and fairly.
· Skills Development & Recognition - Consider offering opportunities for skills
development and recognizing achievements to boost morale after all who
doesn’t love a pat on the back?
· Communication - Encouraging open communication can also help
employees feel more connected and valued. If your company operates in
shifts ensure there is a staff notice board (physical or digital) where
information is passed along to ensure all staff are on the same page. This
also ensures no information is “lost in translation”.
· Competitive Compensation and/or Benefits - It is important to pay your
staff a competitive salary. This helps to ensure that staff aren’t simply leaving
for higher pay frequently. Yes, do not overstretch your business as you want
to ensure any compensation given is sustainable. If you aren’t able to match
your competitors salary wise you can look into other ways staff can benefit
from working at your business. Consider providing all staff with a meal per
shift and/or a transport allowance. Such benefits can go a long way!
· Unique Needs - We know all businesses are different therefore take time to
look into your businesses unique needs. Are you running an establishment
where staff end their shifts at 2am? If so, do you provide accommodation on
site or close by for them? If so this information can be shared during
interviews to ensure new staff that their safety and well-being is being
considered by your business!
By investing in your crew, you’ll create a workplace that folks don’t want to leave, which
means that pesky revolving door slows down!
