Everyone has good and bad days at work, but when an employee has too many bad days, they may start strategizing to leave that job behind.If you've worked hard to get the best possible people on your staff; the ones most desirable to your competitors; needless to say, you don't want to lose them due to situations you could prevent.

Here are few reasons...

01. A Lack of Work/Life Balance
Family or other responsibilities can require flexibility that an employer is unable or unwilling to provide. Then employees sometimes find it easier to quit than to rearrange their family obligations.

02. Employees Don’t Feel Valued or Recognized
Not getting recognition is one of the top reasons for why employees leave their organizations. Lack of recognition leads employees to leave their current employer and go looking for new opportunities. 

03.Poor Management
Unfortunately, in many companies being a manager is considered a step on a typical career ladder, regardless of an employee’s skills. Managers require expert communication and interpersonal skills 

04.Other Good Employees Leave
Just as the saying “People don’t leave jobs, they leave bad managers”, the opposite is also true. People stay in a job because of a well-liked manager. So when this well-liked manager leaves the organization for a new job, employees may no longer feel the connection to the organization as they once did, and would want to leave too.

05.No longer challenged
Good employees don’t want mindless work; they want to be engaged with their work and feel like they are continuously learning. Creating fresh challenges and setting new goals helps employees feel useful and keeps them interested

06.Feeling underpaid
Salary is another top reason. Employees can easily find out what their peers in other companies are earning, which makes them acutely aware of their market value. Offering competitive salaries and other benefits can thus motivate them to stay. Keep in mind though that not every resignation is financial in nature, and that uncovering other underlying factors may be necessary to retain an employee.

07.Lack of Teamwork
Poor team collaboration not only hinders employee performance, but it also creates a toxic work environment. In fact, our survey found that 1 in 2 people felt discriminated against by their peers. Undoubtedly, this is a contributing factor to bad teamwork and has a direct impact on employees’ job satisfaction, which, as a result, leads to a significantly higher turnover.

Conclusion 

By being mindful of an employees needs, and particularly what would make them reconsider their current employment, you can take measures to avoid an employee leaving.
If you check Statistics , shows that it can cost up to 40% of an employees annual salary to replace someone, by the time you take into account recruitment and advertising costs, training the new employee.
