Reflection
The research project which I have undertaken is related with the impact of the turnover
rate of the employees on the performance of the overall organisation. Undertaking this research
is an opportunity for me as with the help of this I could understand the topic and its importance
for an organisation which has been operation on a large scale. This project facilitated me in
understanding the challenges which an organisation has to face because of high employee
turnover of the employees. To deal with such situation the human resource department of the
company has to consistently focus upon various strategies and actions so that they can manage
the situation efficiently.
For undertaking this research efficiently I had to develop an understanding of the concept
of employee turnover and about its importance for the organisation to manage it. Along with this
I also focussed upon various reasons that can compel an employee to leave and organisation such
as Sainsbury in which they have been working so long (Flick, 2018). On the basis of the
understanding so developed I could analysed that the level of motivation and the organisational
environment along with workplace culture plays important role in turnover of the employees.
Apart from this the policies so formulated by the human resource department of the Sainsbury
also has influence on the employees behaviour and their decision of leaving out the organisation.
It is important for the company to consider this issue as it has various impacts on them in terms
of cost of the company, productivity and overall performance of the organisation and many
more. Sainsbury is one of the largest supermarket chains in UK and for its human resource
department managing the issue of employee turnover is so very crucial to minimise its impact on
the company’s performance (Wren, 2015).
From various sources I identified that they organises various trainings and developmental
sessions for the employees, reimbursement planning so that the employees can be made
competence for undertaking various activities. Due to this the cost of the company increases and
if employees turnover rate will be high then this cost will gradually increase for the company.
This creates responsibility of the human resource department of the company to deal efficiently
with the employees. While investigating on the topic and analysing the information of other
companies I noticed that this problem is faced by various companies gradually because with a
significant change in any policy or workplace culture, employees tends to leave the organisation.
On the basis of my study I determined that the employee turnover can be classified into various
