HR Challenge: The Employee Experience - Pathways to Employee Success and Retention
, The hospital is finding two primary issues with staff engagement and retention: high
rates of turnover in different roles and the losses incurred by the institution when key
workers depart. Regarding the first issue, one might wonder why the turnover rate is
increasing. Is it a result of the hospital's subpar management structure? Are the hospital's
staff members subjected to high physical or psychological requirements? No. This is
because employee experience standards are set too low. The hospital administration wants
to avoid attracting candidates with more
incentives or reward schemes; instead, they want staff to pick their hospital over others.
Even the current staff members feel undervalued and need more direction from their
superiors. Should management fail to show that staff members are valued and significant,
they will keep leaving
the institution in search of better opportunities. When you consider that competitors are
offering more benefits like free daycare, technical certification programs, tuition
assistance, scholarship programs, at-work fitness programs, and free childcare, you can
easily see why the hospital is losing patients e and experiencing increased problems with
daily operations. The second concern, about losing essential people, follows straight from
the first. If the hospital loses staff regularly, it also means losing knowledge and essential
individuals who keep up daily operations. The hospital is currently short-staffed in
numerous technical and support roles, and there are openings in several areas, including
nursing, radiology, pharmacy, and laboratory. Having so many openings can lead to many
problems. Each of these roles is essential to the operation and upkeep of a hospital.
