Hi all,
I would like a little advice from you. We have a manufacturing company, and there are many problems related to labor turnover. I would like suggestions from you on what types of benefits I can provide so that they can stay with us for a longer period.
Thank you.

Treat your workers well and equally. Pay them on time, market wages, or slightly better. The worker must feel a sense of belongingness and bonding. Many Japanese workers work long hours and stay with one company for a long time. Management must be proactive, mixing around with workers to show that they are one team.

Dear friend,
If you wish to control employee attrition, then you need to first analyze the attrition. Have you done that? You may check my following posts, wherein I have given an exhaustive list through which you can conduct attrition analysis: https://www.citehr.com/519562-employ...ml#post2211229
Any action plan can be developed once you understand your numbers well.
Lastly, about making your post anonymous. You want advice from seniors but want to protect your identity! Why? Your post does not merit maintaining anonymity.
Thanks,

Workers are assets. Treat them and make them feel they are an inherent part of the business and hence a family. I know many companies where workers are not even aware of their entitlements like EPF, gratuity, etc. This means they need awareness. Most important is to ensure that their interests are protected and they are given fair wages and facilities. Anything more than this and proactive support will help them understand that the company cares.

Dear colleague,
You certainly need to do attrition analysis and fix the reasons. Whatever the findings of your analysis, generally the following reasons are prominently seen why people leave the organization:
- Low rate of wages
- Uncaring and ruthless boss
- Bad working conditions such as lack of ventilation, seating, toilets, tools, lunchroom, and unsafe workplace
- No appreciation for work
- Long distance to the workplace from home and long travel time
- Inadequate leave and holidays
You have to find out which reason is causing the maximum attrition and select it for an action plan.
Remember, there is no one-size-fits-all solution to this, and you have to think about what will work best for your company after your analysis and getting tried and tested ideas from elsewhere.

Dear Mr. Do-not-stay Anon,
People stay with the organization for a long time when they are humanely treated, addressed as associates rather than workers, offered flexible timings, and when the HR department shows concern for the staff and their families even outside of working hours. Depending on the nature of the job, employees receive regular training as needed, and if they wish to pursue academic improvement, arrangements are made for admission to an Institute of Higher Education.
Loyalty and concern from the employer fosters loyalty and concern within the ranks and files.
I hope these lines are helpful.

Hi Anon,
I will keep it simple. I assume your organization gives proper remuneration and on time. I assume the work environment is clean and has basic facilities. My two cents on what could be wrong:
1. Employees are not being appreciated.
2. Employees are not given work according to their innate strengths.
3. Some bullies are there - seniors who are feeling threatened.
4. Employees are not being told what is expected of them - or they are not being heard.
Identification of an employee's strengths through isometric tests - many different types are available in the market - will help in a happier workforce. If they can contribute and see the results of their contribution, they WILL stay.
Take a tough, hard look in the mirror. All the best.
