divided in all the hospitals so that the workload of the staff can be minimised. The role of the
organisation management are very high in the solution of this problem. It is the duty of the

management of the hospitals that they develops effective human resource department in their
organisation which has recruit more and more staff in the organisation so that the work of the
staff can be minimised. It is important for human resource department that they manage the work

organisation which protect the staff of the sector from various types of diseases. It is the duty of
the government that they provide different public facilities to the medical staff in exchange of
their efforts towards the achievement of national duty. It is very important for the organisation

more. The main reason for high staff turnover is the increase the workload of the staff. One of
the most important solution for making the employees not leave the organisation is to provide
them different types of rewards to their employees. There are some employees are present in the
organisation which has done higher performance in the organisation and requires extra benefit
from the company. If the company has provide rewards to these employees so that it motivates
the employees towards the organisation. Providing motivation to the employees are the important
solution to restrict the employee for leaving the organisation. Motivation is the ability of the
person which is used by them to influence the will and behaviour of the employees towards the
achievement of organisational goals and objectives (Evans and Waring, 2020). It is the duty of
the managers of the organisation that they analyse the needs and desire of the employees and
fulfil them so they becomes motivated towards the organisation. Incentive scheme is one of the
attractive measure which can used by the management to increase their retention value of the
company. The company has to provide extra pay for their extra which fulfils their needs in the
market.
