EFFECTS ON PRODUCTIVITY
Increasing work for the remaining staff... This is rather obvious, but think about the work that’s being left undone. If a staff member has to cover the phones because the receptionist has quit, she is going to omit work somewhere. In the choice between her regular work or answering the phone she’ll do the one she feels is more important. But in her consideration she has to think of the effect of unfinished work on other folks in the business, and she will likely make her choice based on the amount of flak she thinks she’ll get from others. If she’s conscientious, her sense of duty will play into it; but one of those jobs will not be done well, and staff and customers know it’s not being done well.
Lower morale for ‘good’ staff...
Staff who work hard – those with a sense of duty and industry, tend to be much more negatively affected by the increased work generated by high staff turnover. These staff like to get things done completely and well, and that’s almost impossible when a vacant position’s work also has to be covered. Consequently, and this is a killer, it’s the best staff who tend to be most depressed or angry about vacancies, and are more likely to walk if the situation remains unresolved.
EFFECTS ON REVENUE
Whether it’s because they’re physically missing or that they can’t do as much when they’re filling in for others, missing staff mean you’re just not going to get the same sales volume. With staff vacancies, neither remaining staff nor the boss can work as fast. Vacancies result in technical work being delayed, information not being collected, customer calls being delayed or missed altogether, and sales not being supported. All of these will result lower revenues now, an

It certainly isn't the easiest job in the world to manage a construction project – and it involves a lot more than knowing how to use tools and build things! Of course construction managers do years of study to learn all the complexities of their role, but onstructionestimating is something that is only mastered through hands on, long term experience. Many contractors hold the belief that residential construction estimating software can cause more harm than good, and this was perhaps the case in the earlier stages of development. Modern day advances mean more variety is available on the market

One of the first questions start up businesses have is…"How do I get an EIN?"Before we look at the how to get this magic number, you need to make sure you really need one.If you have a sole proprietorship, with no employees, you do not need an EIN. The Federal Employer Identification Number, or EIN, is an IRS reference number for your business. As a sole proprietorship, your Social Security Number is the only number you need. You do not need an EIN until you hire your first employee.Remember, your states and cities have their own requirements for business licenses, so you
EFFECTS ON CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
Modern customers are extremely aware of service and product quality. As the new millennium unfolds, offshore competition has made many of its inroads through higher quality products and better services to support them. Because of this, most American companies have had to increase service levels far beyond what they were 60 years ago. While that’s not a bad thing, it means that you’d better be keeping up with customer expectations. And guess what? That’s difficult to do when you are turning staff over. Besides the negative effect on remaining staff, there are the challenges that new staff bring to the business. They have to be trained, and the learning curve to get them up to speed takes time – there’s no way around it. During the training period mistakes will be made, and many of them will involve customers. Customer problems have to be resolved, and THAT takes time, and a good knowledge of the business, which often means that older staff have to be involved, adding to their discouragement and lowering morale. The result: high staff turnover is going to guarantee lower customer satisfaction for your organization.
EFFECTS ON LONG TERM VIABILITY
This is another one that isn’t rocket science: if your customers are leaving you for other companies, you’re not going to stay in business long. Customer loyalty is critical to the long term health of your business, and you MUST seek ways to build it. That means keeping the right staff on board, so that service and product quality remain high and are seen as seamless by those buying your products.
