manages employees and labor of the organization. At the same time he is also responsible for the
issues related to human resource occurs or potential issues in the organization to resolve, in order

recruitment and selection were identified to be most crucial issues faced by the employers and
employees. Due to increase in service orientation in the industry, the relevance of the employees

Employment turnover could be the result of dissatisfying factors in the organization. This
has to be improved by the organization in order to retain the employees as an increase in
turnover could cause a higher cost to the company. Another issue of recruitment and selection

Logical arguments
The major issues identified included:
Employee turnover
As discussed in the previous section employee turnover is the rate at which the
employees leave the organization willingly. This has a negative impact on the company, which
the fast food industry of Australia is facing majorly from years. As per the fact and figures, the
turnover rate of the fast food chains has been reached up to 150 percent reflecting that the rate
has been increased to a large extent. Considering the McDonalds case study, there has been a
large decline in the number of an employee of McDonald's worldwide.
