How to Reduce Turnover in your Hourly Workforce

Do you have a list of the top ten reasons STAR employees would want to work for you? Just one of the questions hourly worker hiring and retention expert Mel Kleiman addresses in this extract from a recent webinar that we did with HR.com.

When it comes to the Work Opportunity Tax Credit employers can receive a tax credit for hiring an individual who qualifies when they come from one of the target groups such as Veterans, or Individuals who have received SNAP benefits. However, your new hires must work at least 120 hours in order for you to receive a 25% tax credit, and reach at least 400 hours to receive a 40% tax credit of their first $6,000 in wages. No easy feat when you have a lot of turn over in your workplace.

Mel discusses how you can attract what he calls STAR employees, and what it takes to keep them in your organization.
