Hey ,
Here is the Retention Rate formula :
% Retention Rate (RR) = 100 - [ {S-(UT+BT)}/AE x 100] Where: RR = Retention Rate S = Total Number of terminations from what ever cause (In effect this means the total number employees that have left the company for what ever reason) UT = Unavoidable Terminations (i.e. retirements or long term illness) BT = Beneficial Terminations (i.e. sometimes those staff that do leave provide benefit to the company by virtue of leaving, for example under performers AE = The average number of employees working for the company during the same period as calculated, this should be any period of 12 months.
Hope you will find this useful. Brgds, Priyanka |
