Turnover increases critical incidents with our clients by putting them in harm’s way by utilizing staff they may not have been properly trained to deal with the client and their particular needs (Wenger, 2011). Furthermore, turnover causes severe staffing shortages and increases overtime costs for additional staff to cover those vacated positions (Wenger, 2011). As an HR professional, I wanted to focus this research on finding the answers to the questions I had around turnover. My research will include the concepts of recruitment and selection in acquiring human resources as well as compensation and training and development and will be used in formulating the strategic recruitment plan.
