The dynamics of employee attraction and retention have shifted significantly in recent years, requiring employers to prioritize employee well-being and satisfaction, according to a July 13 report from the Integrated Benefits Institute, a health and productivity research non-profit.
For instance, employers have reported improvements in retention by implementing a strong onboarding process, flexible work options, increased communication, employee development programs and focusing on diversity and inclusion.
“The research shows the need for both tangible strategies and emotional intelligence in attraction and retention efforts,” Sera-Leigh Ghouralal, a researcher at the Integrated Benefits Institute, said in a statement.
