The cost to replace a salaried employee is 6-9 months of their salary. 

✳ The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) estimate the cost to replace a salaried employee is 6-9 months of their salary.

Based on the UK's average salary of £29,600, we can estimate that the average staff turnover costs between £14,800 and £22,200 per employee.

This estimate does not include unfair dismissal or illegal hiring activities, which can incur massive legal fees and fines.

So how can we help limit staff turnover..............

Different background checks for Employers to potentially do:

✴ Right to work - For ALL employees before they start work

✴ DBS check - Basic checks are recommended at a minimum for all staff. Standard and enhanced checks are required by law if the employee will be working with vulnerable adults and/or children

✴ Referencing - For ALL employees. Used to clarify and confirm employment and educational history
