Reduce turnover with employee retention analysis

Our AI-powered Retain+ system gives each candidate a retention score based on key factors—helping you make smarter hiring decisions and improve retention rates.

Employee Retention Analysis to Understand and Reduce Churn

If you don’t understand why people leave, you can’t reduce churn. Most businesses have a lot of opinions about retention—but limited data that connects hiring decisions, onboarding experience and role reality to who stays.

Our retention analysis focuses on identifying patterns and risk factors that drive turnover. Using our Retain+ approach, we assess key indicators that correlate with staying power and help you make smarter hiring decisions—especially when recruiting at volume.

Over time, retention becomes measurable and improvable. You reduce rehiring cycles, improve workforce stability, and build a recruitment process designed for long-term fit—not just filling vacancies.

Problems

With Employee retention analysis we help to solve:

High employee turnover

New starters don’t stick, forcing you into a costly, never-ending cycle of hiring.

Learn more

Reliance on agency staff

Fees rise and control drops - yet you still don’t build a reliable pipeline of your own.

Learn more

Recruitment disrupting operations

Vacancies and last-minute cover create rota chaos, overtime spikes, and stressed managers.

Learn more

Hiring issues damaging reputation

Wrong hires and poor candidate experiences spread quickly - hurting word-of-mouth, reviews, and referrals.

Learn more

Lack of recruitment strategy

Hiring decisions are made week-to-week, with no clear plan for volume, roles, or locations.

Learn more

Reactive hiring approach

You only recruit when it hurts - then scramble, overspend, and repeat the same problems.
