What Does It Actually Cost to Lose One Employee?
For a mid-level operational employee such as a team leader or skilled technician, the total estimated cost of one leaver ranges from £13,500 to £36,000 covering recruitment, management time, productivity loss and the new hire performance gap. For a 500-person manufacturer with 15% annual turnover, that is potentially over £1 million leaving through the door every year.
*Figures based on CIPD and Deloitte turnover cost research. Actual costs vary by role and sector at time of publishing.
