Abstract

Employees are critical to the successful functioning of contemporary private agencies. Researchers and practitioners have long sought to identify workplace factors that influence employee retention. In this context I have tried to find out different reasons of attrition, and factors that may reduce the voluntary turnover of private-sector employees. I conclude with an in-depth discussion regarding the various factors and parameters which may lead to attrition for an employee. The message for decision makers is clear: When it comes to the retention of personnel, workplace and job characteristics matter. The insights from this chapter should aid private agencies in their ongoing efforts to retain quality professionals.
