Identification of the issues
After having an interaction with the human resource director of the company, it is found
that the company is facing issues related to employee retention. As stated by the human resource
director, generally young employees do not wish to work with the company for too long as
compared to the experienced employees (Cloutier et al. 2015). The issue can put the entire
department in danger in a near future once the experienced employees retire due to lack of
knowledge. The human resource director highlights better opportunities in other organizations as
the reason behind this.
The other issue was identified during the interview session is that the young employees
consider lack of opportunities in regard to career growth (Deery and Jago 2015). As per their
survey of the employees, it has been observed such believe originated among the young
employees as most of the top-notch positions are occupied by the seniors. Lack of coordination,
appraisals from the seniors and corruption during the recruitment of the seniors were some of the
major issues that the department is currently facing.
Solution to the issues
In order to address the above issues, some measures can be adopted. Communication is
the one of most important aspect that needs to be implemented (Das and Baruah 2013). The
seniors must communicate and coordinate with the junior employees so that a healthy workplace
environment exists. As per the human resource director’s statement, he was unable to address the
issue of employee retention even after he had improved the salary structure. In that case, some
rewards and recognition need to be introduced to prevent the employee from leaving their jobs
