Important Aspects of Employee Retention

In 2022, paying people well is table stakes. If you really want to make a difference in your retention levels, take a look at employee experience.

As Inc. puts it, “creating an environment that people want to work in is the most holistic and effective way to approach retention.”

Holistic because it impacts everyone. Effective because people really care about their experience every day on the job. No matter how much money they’re making, if going to work is a drag, they’ll burn out fast.

Employee experience isn’t just about culture — although that’s an important part of it. It’s also about the actual workplace. Does it constitute a comfortable, inspiring place to work? Or conversely, are your hybrid and remote policies working?

The last thing I’ll leave you with, and it’s something many company leaders don’t always consider: A major factor in retention is the bosses. How are yours?
