Employee Retention

(rate this)

This is a real story, happened about 25 years back. I received an interview from a good company with a slightly higher salary. In order to appear for the interview, I applied for half day leave in the morning pretending to be sick. When I attended the office in the afternoon, my boss greeted me 'Hello, How did you fare in the interview? Got the job?'.. Needless to say I was shocked. How come my boss knew about my interview? Since there is no point in pretending I told him that I attended an interview and it was successful. Unable to contain my surprise, I asked my boss 'how do you know that I attended an interview'.. He asked me to meet him in the evening in his chambers. Dutifully, I met h...

Hi All, Came across a nice artical, thought beneficial for all HR professionals : What else does it take to K.E.E.P your employees satisfied? "People work for much more than a paycheck." Most employees are looking for common elements from the people they work for . People, regardless of position, seek a good " Relationship with their manager ", " A positive work environment ", and " Praise and recognition ". Successfully combine these three elements and implement them effectively and you have created the foundation for a great retention strategy. It is obvious that these crucial elements have little or nothing to do with compensation. Instead they remind us an important fact: People work for much more than a paycheck. People not only want their jobs to be a source of income but a source of attaining pride, professional development, enjoyment, and acknowledgment of their skills and efforts as well. With this in mind, I would like to introduce to you a retention-boosting method,...

Office Etiquette or Office Manners is about conducting yourself respectfully and courteously in the office or workplace I have noticed that as we go from college to the real corporate world it is hard to get used to a different environment. This is for freshers because other would be knowing the thumb rules already. Always act with honesty and dignity Chewing gum and popping bubble gum in the presence of co-workers is neither cool nor dignified Never do it whilst attending customers Wear appropriate office attire, for example correct footwear, not thongs (flip flops) - they are strictly casual or beachwear No exposed midriff to display tattoos and body piercing. Be neat, clean and as conservative as the business requires you to be We are put off by smelly people. So, be sure to shower regularly and use a suitable deodorant Do not cough or sneeze in anyone's direction. Use a tissue, if possible, to contain the germs and then say "Excuse me" The ...

HOW CAN I ??

Do you know Walt Disney’s motto ? Never mind if you don't, but surely you'll know what all he accomplished with a simple motto; "It's kind of fun to do the impossible." Even those things that seemed totally hopeless before they are started look relatively simple once they are done. Every day we run into those situations. Those are the "I can't" moments. Instead of saying "I can't", ask yourself "Do I want to?" If the answer is "No", just go ahead and say "I can't". But if the answer is "Yes", ask yourself another question: "How can I?" Imagine what you could accomplish with a simple motto, "How can I?" - the world maybe ? who knows ??
