The Bureau of Labour Statistics (BLS) announced that net employment increased by 431,000in May, and that the unemployment rate fell to 9.7 percent from 9.9 percent.
Transformation of management coincided with rise of IT and re-orientationtowards the demand driven economy. IT facilitated the development of remotecommunication and data accessibility, while re-profiling the management methods,in meanwhile, customer focus has led to organization of customer-orientedestablishments such as call centres. However, aside from benefits, includingaccessibility, convenience, and long term cost reductions, implementation ofinnovations in information technologies has yielded issues. Complete assimilationof technology proved to be difficult due to factors emerging from technological,organizational and environmental contexts. Namely, factors that are most
applicable in the call centre context are technology readiness and managerialobstacles. Another issue that had risen as a consequence of wide spread use of ITin the call centre context is employee turnover. Although not directly linked toturnover per se, IT assisted in transformation of management methods, which,uncompensated, exert pressure onto employees, while often remaining unseen.Since pressure in addition to contributing factors is linked to stress, one suggeststhat stress is the leading cause of turnover at call centres. Accordingly, pressure toperform, along with applied control methods will be examined in this thesis.Thesis proceeds to investigate background information on these issues, followedby review of the relevant academic work, concluding with the case study in the
banking sector aiming to look at specific issues in order to find practical solutions.Finally, a summary will indicate the proposed direction for issue resolution
A Comparative Analysis ofEmployee Turnover in the British and Greek Banking Industry.Issues and Recommendations
Vivis doctoral research, co-supervised by Professor Geraint Johnes of the Department ofEconomics and Professor Paul Sparrow of the Centre for Performance-led HR, investigatesthe issue of employee turnover in both the British and Greek banking sector throughcomparing original personnel record and event history data in two financial institutions.
The project examines the likelihood of employees withdrawing in relation to a number ofmacro-economic, organisational and individual variables at a comparative level based uponhigh quality databases. For example, data are available for the UK bank covering the periodof 1991-2001, during which time around 20,000 people exited the firm. Comparative data arebeing established for a Greek bank. This enables a range of economic and psychologicalfactors to be assessed as predictors of turnover. Reasons for leaving may be linked to a rangeof other variables such as tenure, current and previous performance, demographic factorsand so forth. The project allows for an examination of the critical impact of employees

The analysis of the longitudinal data, will be undertaken through firstly, theformulation of parametric duration (survival) models exploring the effect of particulardeterminants on employee turnover and secondly, the estimation of a competing risk modelidentifying the different outcomes of/reasons for employee withdrawal. The study will also
provide empirical evidence of human resource practices on employee retention and turnoverapplied by both financial institutions.
The research is intended to disseminate knowledge of employee turnover concept throughthe identification of previous studies on the particular field, the interpretation of the largedataset used for the analysis gathered by the financial institutions and the explanation of theHRM practices applied by the organisations. Finally, the findings of this research will havemanagerial implications for the development of appropriate programs to evaluate, control oreven reduce the level of non desirable voluntary turnover within British and Greek banks.
ATTRITION ::::: Is it important to your organization?
Employee attrition costs 12 to 18 months salary for each leaving manager or professional, and4 to 6 months' pay for each leaving clerical or hourly employee. According to a study byIpsos-Reid, 30% of employees plan to change jobs in the next two years. Do the math anddiscover how much your company may pay for attrition.
Although employee turnover can help organizations evolve and change, an AmericanManagement Association survey showed that four out of five CEOs view employee retentionas a serious issue for organizational success. If managers know the real causes of attrition,
managers can control attrition and retain employees. Each retained employee can save moneyand lead to better opportunities.
Why Employees LeaveMost employees leave their work for reasons other than money - and your organization cancorrect these reasons. Most leaving employees seek opportunities that allow them to use anddevelop their skills. Leaving employees want more meaning in their work. They often indicatethat they want to use their qualities and skills in challenging teamwork led by capableleaders.
Managerial staff cite "career growth" and "leadership" as the major factors thatinfluence attrition and retention, together with "opportunities for management""ability of top management" "use of skills and abilities" and work/family balanceProfessional employees cite concerns about "supervisory coaching and counseling,""company direction" and interesting workClerical employees voice concerns such as "type of work," "use of skills and abilities"and opportunities to learn

Exit Interviews
Exit interviews provide an excellent source of information of internal problems, employees'perceptions of the organization, underlying workplace issues, and managers' leadershipabilities.
Ineffective Managers
High employee turnover can be recognized and properly attributed to poor managerialperformance, emotional intelligence and ineffective leadership. Poorly selected or improperlytrained managers can be expensive...
A Workforce Magazine article, "Knowing how to keep your best and brightest," reported theresults of interviews with 20,000 departing workers. The main reason that employees choseto leave was poor management. HR magazine found that 95 percent of exiting employeesattributed their search for a new position to an ineffective manager.

Attrition worries return to haunt IT sectorThe Indian IT sector is grappling with high attrition rate even as firms
are doling out financial and other benefits to employees, says industry
body NASSCOM.
Employee attrition is one of the critical problem which is faced by an HR manager duringthese days. In an ideal situation an employee consider multiple comfort level while workingin a office for e.g. employer's goodwill in the market, remuneration, future growth, workingcondition, co-workers, current role's scope in the market & most important future stabilitywith the organization. In a survey, approximate 70% of the working population in India isnot happy at all due to one of the aspect (as mentioned aforesaid) which is not fulfilled whileworking in a organization which caused higher attrition rate.
In broad term, attrition is a situation which employer face when employee left theorganization due to job dissatisfaction, new opportunity in the market, retirement & naturalcause (death/illness). Now a days this is one of the most important question which is askedby higher authority to HR people."Why our attrition rate is higher than other company".Earlier it wasn't important for the organization, whether their employees are committed ornot, but now the time has been changed. The company cannot afford to lose its best
employee to competitors. Therefore, HR team conducts EXIT interview when an employeeleft the job to get the information about one's decision to leave an organization. It is aparamount consideration for a HR team to think, why people are vacating their positions.Still Human Resource team face the challenge due to wrong information provided duringEXIT interview.
Reason for Leaving-
The reason are various behind leaving an organization & any attempt to find onecomprehensive explanation for this phenomenon would be futile. Though the rising attritionwithin industries is a well-discussed topic but very few HR executives have been able topinpoint the 'exact' reason for this growing trend.

survey shows one of the top reasons for talent attrition to be "external inequity incompensation". They also show that 27% of the employees in their EXIT interview mentionedcompensation as the primary reason. It comes no surprise to many that money is an
important factor but what besides this, there are several factors that influence an employee'sdecision to leave.
Those days are gone when salary was the sole motivator for an employee to leave anorganization. According to a survey there are three main reasons that are followed by othercommon reason:
* In equity in compensation* Limited career opportunities* Role stagnation
Common reasons experienced by HR manager are discussed here:
* Mismatch of job profile.* Job stress and work-life imbalances* Odd working hours/Early morning-night shifts* Job hopping* Lack of authority provided to accomplish ones task* Monotony of job
The list can be endless but the reason why employees leave the organization is varyaccording to the nature of the business. The work should give to them the level of the
employees and the nature of the responsibility he/she can handle. Therefore it's verychallenging task for an HR expert to cope up with this situation and retain talent with anorganization.
Attrition to be a very big problem for banks: Reserve Bank of India(Press Trust of India/MUMBAI, January 11, 2010, 21:27 IST)
The Reserve Bank Of India (RBI) the made a statement today that the banking system may
increasingly face the problem of staff attrition in the period ahead and banks will have to
gear up to tackle the issue.
We are going to rise in the attrition rate. There is a need for adequate focus on HR
management.....Banks need to take adequate care of their manpower, RBI Deputy governor
Chakrabarty said at Bancon conference here today.
Banks are not putting adequate attention to improve their HR talent, Chakrabarty said,
adding for better efficiency, they need to educate their staff to enhance their skills.

McKinsey Associate Partner Supriyo Sinha said nearly 63,000 employees of the public-sector
banks will retire over the next three years and banks will have to devise ways to overcome
this challenge.
Earlier this fiscal, leading PSBs like SBI, Bank of Baroda, Indian Overseas Bank and Bank of
India among others had announced their plan to hire over 30,000 hands this fiscal itself,
undeterred by the economic downturn and lower sales volume.
The biggest lender SBI had started a head hunt to support its fast expanding network by
planning to hire about 20,000 clerical staff and around 5000 supervisory staff by the fiscal-
end ,the bank said.
Bank OF India (BoI) was planning to hire around 1,737 this fiscal itself to man its expanding
network. This includes 500 officers ,500 clerical staff and 237 specialist officers in the next
three to four months a BoI officer had said.
Indian Banks Association Chairman MV Nair also shared a similar view saying nearly 58
percent of the PSB employees will retire by 2012.The IBA is understood to have appointed a
committee to study this matter in a comprehensive manner, Nair told reporters later.
Union bank plans to hire 2,000 staff and will also conduct campus interviews to
find the right talent, Nair, who is also Union Bank Chairman and Managing
Director (MD) said.

Baroda ethics
Between 1913 and 1917, as many as 87 banks failed in India. Bank of Baroda
survived the crisis, mainly due to its honest and prudent leadership.
This financial integrity , business prudence, caution and an abiding care andconcern for the hard earned savings of hard working people, were to become the
central philosophy around which business decisions would be effected. This
cardinal philosophy was over the 94 years of its existence , to become its biggest
asset. It ensured that the Bank survived the Great War years. It ensured survival
during the great depression. Even while big names were dragged into the Stock
Market scam and the Capital Market scam, the Bank Of Baroda remained
unscathed due to best ethical practises.
Strenthening the Edifice
In the mid1930s, greater autonomy was allowed to branches. Institutional
safeguards against possible misuse of powers vested in managers were installed.
In 1939 the first safe deposit lockers were provided at Baroda. Administrative
8/2/2019 Management of Attrition of Young Employees In

initiatives were reinforced byHRD interventions. Branch expansion wsa pursued.
These were all bold experiments 70 years ago. Over the second great war
years,the Banks business grew phenomenally. At this time the Bank, in a limited
way, ventured into foreign exchange banking. In 1947, when India became free.,
Bank Of Baroda, with 48 brances, was still an essentially regional bank.
Nevertheless it had found a place in Indias Fortune Five list of banks.
In Indias post independence phase, the Bamk started fan out beyond its
backyard. Between 1953 and 1958, 30 new offices were opened. Strategic
mergers up to 1965 saw the Bank network over 234 branches. In a real sense,
Bank of Baroda had become a national institution. Upon nationalization , it
operated from 433 branches. Today the network is built over 2900 branches in
India and around the world.
Discovering new markets
In its early years the Bank deployed loanable funds into trade. When India started
its industrialization programme,Bank of Baroda found a niche in industry.
As India entered international markets,the Bank made forays into export-import
finance. As social and economic imperatives demanded focus on the neglected
rural and agriculture sector ,the Bank built a portfolio of agricultural credit
assets. Today , as the process of disintermediation begins to encroach on a
bankers credit market. Bank of Baroda has identified yet another new market
leveraged living by the Worlds largest mass of middle class. Credit focus is
inexorably shifting to this potentially explosive consumer credit market that
promises exciting growth possibilities. It is this relentless search for new marketsand new product ideas that has differentiated Bank of Baroda from the
competitors.
Beyond indian shores
8/2/2019 Management of Attrition of Young Employees In

In 1953 , the bank opened its first overseas branch at Mombasa, Kenya. Wherever
enterprising indians settled beyond Indias shores, Bank of Baroda also went. The
need to become truly international and competitive ,drove later assaults on
international markets.
Today ,Bank of Baroda is Indias leading international bank. Its network covers 80
branches/offices in 25 countries. Overseas operations of the Bank today
contribute nearly 20%of the Banks net profit. In a real sense , Bank of Baroda ha
sgrown to become a truly international institution.
Nationalisation and national developmentOn 19th july,1969 The Bank Of Baroda Ltd. became Bank of Baroda. A new phase
in the banking has started. The commited itself to its new role of national
development. The Bank gave social banking a new dimension, with its Multi-
Service Agency(MSA) model for urban micro-credit. It was the most customer
friendly innovation in social banking anywhere.
In 1976 the Bank opened the first of its sposored Regional Rural Bankcomplementing itys own operations in the rural heartland, where three-quarters
of india lived. In 1977, the Bank launched the Gram Vikas Kendra, an innovative
model for integrated Rural Development. Following an aggressive expansion
policy, by 1981, the Bank had 1669 branches ,taking bank services to far-flung
places-the unbanked areas of India. The Bank co-ordinates State Level Bankers
Committees in Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh.
People initiatives
Bank Of Baroda has always had an immense faith in the infinite potential of its
people. This has been historically demonstrated in its recruitment practices,
developmental processes and promotion policies. Strategic HR interventions like,

according cross border and cross cultural work exposure to its managers, hiring
diverse functional specialists to support line functionaries and complementing the
technical competencies of its people by imparting conceptual, managerial and
leadership skills, gave the Bank competitive advantage. The elaborate man
management policies also made the Bank a breeding ground for business leaders.
The Bank provided around a dozen CEOs to the Banking industry-men who went
on to build other great institutions. People initiatives were blended with IR
initiatives to create an initiatives to create an effectively harmonious
workplace,where everyone prospered.
Financial initiatives
New norms for capital adequacy required new capital management strategies. In
1995 the Bank raised Rs. 300 crores through a bond issue. In 1996 the Bank
tapped the capital market with an IPO of Rs. 860 crores. Despite adverse market
conditions prevailing then the isue was over subscribed, reflecting the positive
public perception of the Banks fundamental financial strength.
Digital initiatives
Bank of Baroda pioneered the shift from manual operating systems to a
computerized work environment. The Banks technology initiatives are clearly
focussed on the customer. The Business Transformation Progamme,encompassing
technology, was implemented by Bank with a view to providing the customer,convinience banking on 24X7 basis, in India and abroad, through deployment of

also under the claws of ATTRITION.........and it being somewhat a concept of
significance to the organization,when blown out of proportion it needs to be
checked with all appropriate measures being take before things go out of
controllable stage. To know the psyche and analyse the situation of young
employees here at Bank of Baroda at lucknow branches,an inhouse survey was
conducted as a part of this project,which involved ::--
a question answer session with the employees ,
recording their responses on the sheets,
Then an analysis of those responses.

of the respective branches and the staff therein lent their handful of support and
co operation which actually have made the results very genuine and reliable.

96% young employees have entered the bank as DRO(Directly Recruited Officers) so it can be deciphered
to some extent that the job they took up can not be for gaining experience .,they must be seeking some
immediate financial security which BOB provided them,so a sense of loyalty is inulcated right from the
beginning.
A major chunk finds the atmosphere quite congenial and supportive of their job profile
For,employees working in Bank of Baroda for more than five years are quite satisfied with the
organisation. They have a peer group ,they have developed a strong sense of LOYALTY for the
organization,they do not seek any specific thing in the organization or from the management.

Learnings
Attrition is basically a probable problem with the young lot.
Once a person makes up his /her mind to quit a place then it takes almost
a miracle to get him/her back into the track.
An unsatiated and unhappy employee works in and for the organization
just with half his heart and capacity.
