Employee turnover rates are up to 60 percent lower (!) than average for companies with a highly engaged workforce. Besides that, engaged employees are 26% more productive and 28% more aligned. Back to the essence: what makes your employees engaged? Employers who give this thought, will naturally retain talent.

Love your job

Engaged employees love their job. They explore their responsibilities, enjoy working and believe they are adding value by doing so. This means they are less likely to quit. As research shows: when engagement levels rise, employee turnover rates drop. Engaged employees also deliver a better performance. This too is a natural occurrence. Employees that are happy, are more likely to go the extra mile for the organization’s success. For example, by helping a customer after closing time or by suggesting ways to improve on their own initiative. Last but not least, engaged employees are often better aligned, which improves collaboration. All together, organizations that work with engaged employees make 22% more profit.

Increase customer satisfaction

You are not the only one to benefit from engaged employees. Research shows that as employee engagement increases, so does customer satisfaction. For example, an engaged employee will score an impressive 8.5 on customer orientation. Employees that are not so engaged rarely score more than a 6. A happy employee will offer customers a better experience than an employee who is just waiting to go home, which is not that surprising. Organizations that score very well on customer satisfaction, also score better on employee retention and attract customers more easily through word of mouth and positive reviews on social media.
