Common causes of employee turnover and workforce managers role in how to prevent them.

Workforce managers, workforce management systems, human resources professionals as well as industrial psychologists all have their own theories on the question of – “What causes employee turnover”.

Among the most common causes of employees leaving a company are:

  1. Excessive workload, an employee doing the work of more than one person.  This often entails overtime and necessitating the employee having to take work home. Many employees say that they become overwhelmed and overloaded with work. The increase in stress levels and pressure means that they cannot sustain it and will eventually seek employment elsewhere.
  2. Management not giving the employee sufficient recognition for the work done, or taking the credit themselves of giving it to the wrong person.
  3. Not giving the staff member sufficient power to make decisions to get the job done and to progress in the organization.
  4. Ongoing change initiatives giving the employee a sense of instability.
  5. Management not giving clear briefs and clear guidelines on their expectations of the employee.
  6. Poor leadership skillsCauses of Employee Turnover

Other reasons could range from anything from job mismatch, inadequate training or even inadequate compensation plans.


The costs of turnover in a company are huge. It is necessary to understand the role that turnover of employees play and the reasons for it.
