It's true that employee turnover can cost your business a significant amount of money. But many business owners underestimate just how much money they can lose when an employee leaves their team. First of all, you are losing money when trying to find a replacement. Putting out ads, using recruiters, that all costs money. Plus, you are losing money on productivity for every day and week that your business is short-handed. Even when you do find a new employee to replace your old one, you still continue to lose money on productivity while you are onboarding and training that person. By the time your new employee is up to speed and working up to his or her potential, you are probably already a couple thousand of dollars in the hole.
