Episode 6: The Employee Onboarding Special Edition
The topic of BB4G TV this week is Employee Onboarding. Here are some stats you may not be aware of:
- 4% of new hires leave a job after a disastrous first day
- 22% of turnover occurs within the first 45 days.
- 23% of new starters who receive poor onboarding experience leave in the first year.
- And the real cost of that turnover can be as high as 3 times the employee's salary
