INTRODUCTION
EMPLOYEE TURNOVER
Employee turnover is a ratio comparison of the number of employees a company must
replace in a given time period to the average number of total employees. A huge concern to
most companies, employee turnover is a costly expense especially in lower paying job roles,
for which the employee turnover rate is highest. Many factors play a role in the employee
turnover rate of any company, and these can stem from both the employer and the
employees. Wages, company benefits, employee attendance, and job performance are all
factors that play a significant role in employee turnover.

CAUSES OF TURNOVER
There are a number of factors that contribute to employee turnover. We explore
some of these factors in more detail below.
1. THE ECONOMY: Some minimum wage workers report leaving one job for
another that pays only 50 cents an hour more. Obviously, in a better economy the
availability of alternative jobs plays a role in turnover, but this tends to be
overstated in exit interviews.
2. THE PERFORMANCE OF THE ORGANIZATION - an organization perceived
to be in economic difficulty will also raise the specter of impending layoffs.
Workers believe that it is rational to seek other employment.
3. THE ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE - much has been written about
organizational culture. It is sufficient to note here that the reward system, the
strength of leadership, the ability of the organizations to elicit a sense of
commitment on the part of workers, and its development of a sense of shared
goals, among other factors, will influence such indices of job satisfaction as
turnover intentions and turnover rate.
4. THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE JOB - some jobs are intrinsically more
attractive than others. A job's attractiveness will be affected by many
characteristics, including its repetitiveness, challenge, danger, perceived
importance, and capacity to elicit a sense of accomplishment. A job's status is
also important, as are many other factors.
5. UNREALISTIC EXPECTATIONS - Another factor is the unrealistic
expectations and general lack of knowledge that many job applicants has about
the job at the time that they receive an offer. When these unrealistic expectations
are not realized, the worker becomes disillusioned and decides to quit.
6. DEMOGRAPHICS - empirical studies have demonstrated that turnover is
associated in particular situations with demographic and biographical
characteristics of workers. But to use lifestyle factors (e.g. smoking) or past
employment history (e.g. many job changes) as an explicit basis for screening
applicants, it is important for legality and fairness to job applicants to verify such
bio-data empirically.
7. THE PERSON - These include both personal and trait-based factors. Personal
factors include things such as changes in family situation, a desire to learn a new
skill or trade, or an unsolicited job offer. These traits are some of the same
characteristics that predict job performance and counterproductive behaviors
such as loafing, absenteeism, theft, substance abuse on the job, and sabotage of
employer's equipment or production. These traits can be measured and used in
employee screening to identify individuals showing lower probability of turnover.

ABOUT THE INDUSTRY
THE INDIAN IT INDUSTRY
The Information Technology (IT) sector in India holds the distinction of advancing
the country into the new-age economy. The growth momentum attained by the overall
economy since the late 1990s to a great extent can be owed to the IT sector, well supported
by a liberalized policy regime with reduction in telecommunication cost and import duties
on hardware and software. Perceptible is the transformation since liberalization – India
today is the world leader in information technology and business outsourcing.
Correspondingly, the industry’s contribution to India’s GDP has grown significantly from
1.2% in 1999-2000 to around 4.8% in FY06, and has been estimated to cross 5% in FY07.
The sector has been growing at an annual rate of 28% per annum since FY01.
EMERGING TRENDS IN THE INDIAN IT SERVICES INDUSTRY
While the global IT players are aggressively scaling up their operations in India,
due to the advantages that the Indian industry offers, the Indian IT companies are also
preparing to tap the global market. The companies are witnessing significant change with
regard to their service offerings and geographical concentration. Today, companies are
expanding their service offerings from application development and maintenance to high
end services like testing, consulting and engineering designing. The global delivery model
has not only facilitated the companies in delivering quality of work but also helped them to
control costs.
Presently, the Indian IT companies are on a hiring spree which indicates their
bullishness on their order flows. All the major players have increased their manpower by
15-50%, and the trend is expected to continue further. As a result, the companies are
expected to scale up their operations. The Indian IT companies are also vying for inorganic
growth, with a quest for newer geographical areas, service offerings, domain expertise,
customers and markets
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Price & Muller (1981) observed that job dissatisfaction influenced actual turnover
indirectly through its direct effect on turnover intention. The variables that affect
job satisfaction are pay, promotion opportunities, immediate supervisor, fringe
benefits, contingent rewards, rules and procedures, relation with co-workers, type of
work done, and communication within the organization.
Williams and Hazer (1986) has differentiated between job satisfaction and
commitment by explaining the former as an emotional reaction to specific aspects of
job and the latter as an emotional reaction to the whole organization. Both the

individual factors as well as the organizational factors influence organizational
commitment which eventually influences turnover intentions amongst employees.
Costly et al. (1987) points out that a high labour turnover may mean poor personnel
policies, poor recruitment policies, poor supervisory practices, poor grievance
procedures, or lack of motivation. All these factors contribute to high employee
turnover in the sense that there is no proper management practices and policies on
personnel matters hence employees are not recruited scientifically, promotions of
employees are not based on spelled out policies, no grievance procedures in place
and thus employees decides to quit.
Magner et al. (1996) argues that employees feel comfortable to stay longer, in
positions where they are involved in some level of the decision-making process. That
is employees should fully understand about issues that affect their working
atmosphere.
Labov, (1997) has highlighted that employees have a strong need to be informed.
Organisation with strong communication systems enjoyed lower turnover of staff.
Mobley (1977) first proposed a model explaining the relationship between job
satisfaction and thoughts of quitting which, ultimately led to actual turnover.
Trevor (2001) argues that local unemployment rates interact with job satisfaction to
predict turnover in the market. Role stressors also lead to employees’ turnover. Role
ambiguity refers to the difference between what people expect of us on the job and
what we feel we should do. This causes uncertainty about what our role should be. It
can be a result of misunderstanding what is expected, how to meet the expectations,
or the employee thinking the job should be different.
Manu et al. (2004) argue that employees quit from organization due economic
reasons. Using economic model they showed that people quit from organization due
to economic reasons and these can be used to predict the labour turnover in the
market.
Loi et al. (2006) has indicated contrary to be true, that is, there existed negative
relationship between turnover intention and both procedural and distributional
justice.
Elanain Abu, (2010) the study disclosed that the perception of organizational justice
had an influence on work outcomes. A low degree of turnover intention was
observed on employees who showed positive feelings towards procedural and
distributive justice.

Create a rotational schedule for roles with sets of tasks that cycle 2 or 3 times a year.
Encourage employee pride by offering innovative programs that demonstrate that
they are important to the success of the company or organization.
Demonstrate respect for employees at all times.
At the same time, don't neglect to hire people with the innate talent, ability, and
smarts to work in almost any position even if you don't currently have the "best"
match available. Hire the smartest people you can find to reduce employee turnover.
CONCLUSION
The researcher has attempted to study some of the factors which may be the
possible reasons for an employee to leave the organization. This research will help the
organization to make the necessary measures to retain the employees. This will certainly
bring down the causes for employee turnover and helps the management to reduce the
employee turnover level.To reduce the employee turnover rate the company has to
concentrate more on working condition and Safety measures. So it leads the organization
to retain their employees.
