HOW CONFIDENCE IN HIRING PRACTICES IMPACTS EARLY TURNOVER William E. Miller Hiring and developing new people are the first steps in building a winning organization and avoiding expensive employee turnover. To develop new people, especially during their initial training, managers must have complete confidence in their company’s hiring system. Without confidence in the quality of new hires, managers lose their commitment to help them when they stumble, falter and face discouragement. I‘ve seen early job discouragement more times tha I can remember.

A good hiring process is built on solid, proven principles and hiring process design that should be taken very seriously. But one principle of hiring process design ranks way up in importance and can have an immediate impact on an organization’s ability to improve hiring and staffing decisions. I call it “The Summit Principle.” Use it, and your hiring decisions will immediately improve. When I was in operations management many years ago, I remember attending a meeting in our Detroit, Michigan facilities with the General Manager and his Department Managers.

The cycles between the best of times and the worst of times can have a disastrous impact on your ability to hire well and with confidence. Economic conditions force companies to re-examine business strategies and budgets, especially in the areas of discretionary spending. In difficult economic conditions downsizing tactics are likely to first occur in administrative functions. Normally, the least productive employees are told to leave first. If conditions worsen, downsizing cuts into operating functions like sales and production.

Peak performance begins with surrounding yourself with talented people who are compatible with your company’s culture and who have the skills needed to succeed in the job. Excessive employee turnover ends all hope of developing peak performance. Two major reasons for people quitting is 1) they hate the job and can’t perform well or 2) the hate the person they work for. An effective hiring process is your best defense and firewall against both of these problems.

A company’s hiring process has everything to do with employee turnover – especially early turnover. Bad hires don’t last - - they leave or are asked to leave. They choose to leave when they don’t like the job, the company, or the people. In this case a bad hire “fires” you and your company. On the other hand, bad hires are asked to leave when they can’t learn, won’t learn, or demonstrate some character flaw. Managers get involved and you fire them.

This is a famous line from one of my favorite movies, Office Space. If you have not seen the movie, I highly encourage you do so. In the scene, an efficiency auditor asks a manager what he does for the company and the manager just can’t come up with a comprehendible answer. After a number of questions and still no clue what the guy does for a living the auditor finally asks, “What exactly would you say you do here?” The employee ends up getting laid off.

Though without a doubt all elements of a company are integral to its success, certainly Human Resources is arguably one of the most important; or, at the very least, it is one of those departments which, when operating inefficiently, can have a significantly detrimental impact on any organization. Over the course of recent years, HR’s role within business has expanded dramatically, transcending traditional boundaries and tying HR in closely with a myriad of different company processes. In layman’s terms – if HR were to tank, the rest of the ship would go down, too.

As the very nature of business has evolved over the past couple of decades, the task of managing a company’s human resources has become increasingly intricate. It is the duty of HR to organize employee information, including background, education, skills, and job history. Historically, larger organizations have struggled to efficiently manage their massive amounts of HR data without the use of computers. A Human Resource Information System, or HRIS, is a type of software application explicitly designed to handle matters of employment and personnel.

Recruiters can go to great lengths to get the right person into a role. Resumes are collected, people are interviewed, discussions take place and selections are made. Once the job is filled, the recruiter has huge hopes that they’ve made the perfect match and that everything is moving along swimmingly for all involved. Sometimes people think this point is the end of the process, but it is not. Feedback is very important to the success of a client’s current project, future projects and the relationship between the client and the staffing company.

How Much Is Employee Turnover Costing Your Organization? Employee turnover is much more costly than you might think. In fact, research shows that up to 80% of turnover costs are hidden. Because of these virtually invisible costs, most managers usually do not track turnover and are not alarmed by high turnover rates. Turnover refers to the number of employees who have voluntarily or involuntarily left a given job or group of jobs during a specified period of time. The "turnover rate" is the ratio of this number to the total number of employees in the job or job group.
