Employee loyalty, a thing of the distant past If attrition levels are a yardstick to measure employee loyalty, then with each passing year, loyalty is becoming disposable. It’s an opportunity to test the creative ingenuity of HR professionals in fostering a culture of trust, respect, collaboration, and high performance which can help retain top talent. We must also acknowledge that opportunities and scope for jobs and entrepreneurships are expanding which are impacting retention. But, it’s time the world redefines the term ‘loyalty’ and not keep it synonymous with long tenure. If a person is committed, trustworthy, productive, and performs at high potential, delivering value to an organization during his / her tenure, he/she has been loyal. It’s an organization’s responsibility to retain such talent by suitably applying (monetary/nonmonetary) levers that are tailor-made for top talent. After all, we need to retain cutting-edge talent whose value-adding contributions can steer organizations onto the next level. #employee loyalty #employeeexperience #employeengagement
