Day One : Disengaged

Various global research states that nearly 70% of employees 'quit' even before they complete one year with the organisation. What would be the reasons?

I would point it at 'satisfaction'levels. The engagement levels are at the best when a new employee joins a company. Then why is that a consider share of employees become dis-engaged soon. Sadly, it starts right from day one.

It is up to the organisation to retain, energize and elevate the levels to a new high. But unfortunately, most often, companies don't realize it till they see absolute signs of disengagement. Many companies have a ‘routine’ pre-joining processes, followed by dull induction session where things are forc-fed to the new joiness and the interactivity takes a rear seat. Needless to say, creativity is the answer here. We need not have a standard induction guide book and have a ring master to mindlessly follow the processes as it is in the HR book.

But people who stay on for more than a year have a brighter chance of going with the company for a good length of time.
