High turnover rates can be detrimental to businesses as they lead to increased recruitment costs, lost productivity, and decreased morale among remaining employees. By tracking and analyzing turnover rates, businesses can identify areas for improvement and develop effective employee recognition programs to reduce turnover rates and retain top talent.

Several factors can influence turnover rate, including job satisfaction, career growth opportunities, salary and benefits, company culture, and work-life balance. Employee recognition and rewards programs can play a significant role in addressing some of these factors and creating a more engaged and satisfied workforce.
