2. INTRODUCTION
EMPLOYEE RETENTION
 Employee retention is a process in which the employees are
encouraged to remain with the organization for the maximum
period of time or until the completion of the project.
 Effective employee retention is a systematic effort by
employers to create and foster an environment that encourages
current employees to remain employed by having policies and
practices in place that address their diverse needs. A strong
retention strategy becomes a powerful recruitment tool.

3.  Employees comprise the most vital assets of the company. In a work
place where employees are not able to use their full potential and not
heard and valued, they are likely to leave because of stress and
frustration.
 Employee retention matters as organizational issues such as training
time and investment; lost knowledge; insecure employees and a costly
candidate search are involved. Hence failing to retain a key employee
is a costly proposition for an organization. Intelligent employers
always realise the importance of retaining the best talent.
 Employee retention strategies go a long way in motivating the
employees so that they stick to the organization for the maximum time
and contribute effectively. Sincere efforts must be taken to ensure
