The Problem of Employee Turnover.

The article mentions the problem of employee turnover and human relations training courses in the United States. Some losses in the work force can be explained by the free economy that expands and relocates, young workers who return to school, and married women who resign their jobs due to family responsibilities. The relative cost of labor turnover can be reduced by improved employment and selection procedures, adequate job training and orientation, better wages and working conditions, and the development of human relations training for supervisors. Topics include employee surveys, two improvements that should be made in human-relations training programs, and sociocultural reasons for labor mobility.
