Offboarding Surveys

Why do Your Employees Quit?

75% of an employee’s annual salary. That’s how much it costs to lose an employee (Phillips, 2004).

It’s impossible to prevent all employee turnover, but understanding the primary reasons why employees leave is a crucial first step to retaining valuable personnel.

Our exit survey model offers anonymized, structured survey approaches that provide ongoing insights presented in user-friendly reporting.

Our Exit Survey Solution:

Analyze Across Departments

Relying solely on face-to-face interviews limits the scope of your exit surveys and any possibilities to aggregate information across different departments and managers.

Data also shows that the topic of faulty management is brought up markedly less in face-to-face interviews compared to anonymized surveys, indicating an omission of the employee’s true feelings on the matter. Our exit survey solution guarantees continuous insights spanning the full breadth of your organization while highlighting key factors influencing unwanted attrition.

Anonymized Responses Reveal the Truth

Another advantage of the structured quantitative approach is anonymity of respondents.

Upon leaving the organization, valued employees might not be entirely honest when explaining the reasons for their departure in a face-to-face setting. They might wish to avoid burning any bridges or simply not care. But this lack of transparency severely limits the usefulness of their statements. By gathering anonymous data, employees can respond without the fear of personal repercussions.

Live Insights, Minimum Admin

You can easily and at any point integrate your exit survey flow with your existing HR-system, and employees will automatically receive invitations to complete relevant exit surveys. This minimizes manual administration and affords you the time to focus on the work that matters, such as analysis and implementation of new initiatives.

Don’t Neglect Onboarding

A well-executed onboarding process is a significant factor in employee engagement and, ultimately, combating unwanted attrition.

If you make sure your onboarding processes are in place and perform above par for your market, you’re already well on your way to holding on to your most valuable assets — your employees. Here your employee engagement survey can be very helpful in understanding how to retain employees.

Understand Why Top Performers Quit

It’s Good Business

Holding on to valuable team members is not only good for team cohesion; it’s also one of the cheapest (and most effective) strategies to ensure organizational prosperity in the long run.

A whopping 9% of employees in Danish and Norwegian businesses look for a new job within the first three months of hire (Rambøll, 2022). Most often they cite bad management and poor working environment as leading causes for leaving.

Low Turnover Benefits Everyone

An average Danish municipality with 3.500 employees spends approximately 165 mill. DKK every year on staff turnover, and during the years of the Covid-19 pandemic, this number was likely even higher.

This is particularly interesting when combined with the fact that, when asked whether their organization examined reasons for employee turnover (such as conduct exit surveys), 76% of HR-employees said either, ‘No’ or ‘Some’ (Rambøll, 2022).

With adequate insight into internal turnover trends, much personal pain, time wasted, and unnecessary expenses could be saved.
