Employee attrition

1.1 INTRODUCTION TO THE TOPIC
Employee attrition is one of the critical problems which are faced by an HR manager
during these days. Attrition in BPO not only pushes up costs incurred on the training of
employees but also affects productivity along with the ideal level of 'knowledge maturity' of the
organization and the employees. The organizations having capacity to withstand its long lasting
relationship with employees would survive in the market place and others would fade away in
the long run. The final solutions of BPO lies in the stabilization of business operations and
availability of trained and matured manpower in abundance and which may bring a long lasting
solution for the high attrition the sector. More of committed of employees at all levels will help
this industry to stabilize, grow and add value to the economic growth.
The reason for the high rate of attrition in the BPO sector particularly call centre segment
range from lack of comfort of enrichment potential in terms of career growth. The growth of
BPO industry is mainly depending on the cost effectiveness and quality of the manpower.
The reasons for the employees to leave his organization was endless but the reason why
employees leave the organization is vary according to the nature of the business. In BPO industry
the employee consider multiple comfort level while working in a office for e.g. employer's
goodwill in the market, remuneration, future growth, working condition, Stress generated by
nature of job and workload, co-workers, current role's scope in the market & most important
future stability with the organization
Retaining employees has always proved to be fruitful across many industries rather than
to search for new & efficient talent. So to gain the fruit of this tree, different companies devise
different strategies for retaining their employees. Hence the paper is also discussing about the
various Retention strategies that can help to check the high attrition rate in an organization

Enabled Services (ITES) industry.
Few of the motivation factors as to why BPO is gaining ground are:

Challenges for a HR Professional in BPO:
Brand equity: People still consider BPO to be "low brow", thus making it difficult to
attract the best talent.
Standard pre-job training: Again, due to the wide variety of the jobs, lack of general
clarity on skill sets, etc, there is no standard curriculum, which could be designed and
followed.
Benchmarks: There are hardly any benchmarks for compensation and benefits,
performance or HR policies. Everyone is charting their own course.
Customer-companies tend to demand better results from outsourcing partners than
what they could actually expect from their own departments. "When the job is being
done 10,000 miles away, demands on parameters such as quality, turn around
timeliness, information security, business continuity and disaster recovery, etc, are far
higher than at home.
Lack of focused training and certifications
Key To success
The key to success in ramping up talent in a BPO environment is a rapid training module. The
training component has to be seen as an important sub-process, requiring constant re-
engineering.

employer and "Drag Attrition" which is caused due to the employee. The reasons for Drive
Attrition are due to employer's policies of Terminating the employee at the end of the contract
period for employment. Drag Attrition is basically due to the host of insecurities and
vulnerabilities associated with the taking up a career with a BPO company.

3.4. FRAMEWORK OF ANALYSIS:
The methods followed for the analysis and interpretation of data are:
Percentage
Weighted mean method

30
PERCENTAGE METHOD:
Percentage refers to a special kind of ratio. It is used to make comparison between two or
more series of data. They can be used to compare the relative items, the distribution of two or
more series of data, since the percentages reduces every thing to a common base and there by

X =
NO OF RESPONDENTS
TOTAL RESPONDENT
WX

parametric test used by marketing researcher to test hypothesis. This test is employed for testing
hypothesis when distribution of population is not known and when nominal data is to be
analyzed. If the calculated value is greater than the table value then the alternative hypotheses
(HI) is accepted. If the calculated value is less than table value null hypothesis (H0) is accepted.

= ∑ [(Oi - Ei) 2
/Ei]
Oi = Observed value
Ei = Expected value
Degree of freedom = (Row - 1) x (Column -1)
Ho = Null hypothesis
H1 = Alternative hypothesis
If calculated value > Table value (Reject Ho) & If calculated value < Table value (Accept Ho).
Ei = (Observed Row Total x Observed Column Total) /Aggregate total

CONCLUSION
It is HR's job, though not HR's job alone, to champion and shepherd effective
human resource management practices at both the strategic and day-to-day levels. That is, to be
effective, human resource management practices must be grounded in two ways. First, they must
reflect company wide commitments as to how it will manage and relate to its employees.
Secondly, HR must implement these commitments so that the ideals of the enterprise and deeds
of its agents are congruent. In order to ensure a consistent flow of trained manpower in the
future, the industry needs to work with the government to introduce courses at a school and
college level, which are in line with the requirements of the BPO industry. India has one of the
largest pool of English speaking graduate workforce. The challenge for the industry is not in
employment but employability. To ensure organization's growth, HR manager should give close
attention to why attrition is occurring in the present. To ignore why people are leaving the
organization is to ignore the organization greatest assets – its people. People in organization are
needed to perform the task; but they are not just machine but more than that. They are
organization dreams, hopes, ambitions, creativity and innovation. And to retain these valuable
assets is one of the surest ways to build an organization rather than just to go in global markets.
And this is the only way an organization can lower its attrition rate.
