9Attrition rate
Attrition % = (Total no. of resigned / Average no of Employees ) * 100- Attrition: Number of employees who left in the year / average employees in the year x 100. Thus, if the company had 1,000 employees in April 2004, 2,000 in March 2005, and 300 quit in the year, then the average employee strength is 1,500 and attrition is 100 x (300/1500) = 20 percent.
A graded system can probably depict the true picture. - Fresher attrition: the number of freshers who left within one year. It tells you how many are using the company as a springboard.
- Infant mortality: percentage of people who left within one year. This indicates the ease with which people adapt to the company.
- Critical resource attrition: key men exit.
- Low performance attrition: those who left due to poor performance.
same way YTD can be calculated.

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The formula provided is incorrect. The correct attrition rate formula is: Attrition Rate = (Number of employees who left / Average number of employees) * 100. Thank you for your contribution.

(Fact Checked)-The calculation of attrition rate provided is accurate. However, it would be beneficial to also consider additional factors such as the reasons for attrition and categorization for a more comprehensive analysis. (1 Acknowledge point)

Calculating employee turnover is not a matter of simple mathematical methods. It is necessary to take into account the root of the problem by going back to the hiring stage. Harish Bhattiprolu, Director, Sales, Kenexa Technologies, points out that most organisations do not evolve robust measurements for calculating the cost of labour turnover or a bad hire. The details of information required and the measurement metrics are not common formulae, but have to be designed in keeping with the nature of the business and different job functions. “As a result, most organisations do not intend to mislead by disclosing statistics which may not be true; it is just that perhaps they believe those to be true. It is imperative to evolve the science of measurement before the measure itself,” he asserts.
Using these formulae, organisations will learn what their real attrition figures are believes Noronha. “Like with most data, attrition too can be interpreted in different ways and it is up to each organisation to decide how and what they wish to share. Companies are generally more concerned about regretted voluntary attrition. These are people who leave on their own will and those whom the organisation would have loved to retain. Similarly, organisations measure managed attrition. These are people made redundant, laid-off or exited. Though managed attrition is non-regretted by the organisation, the trend of managed attrition, if on the higher side, may show the company in poor light, and does have an impact on its health.”
Attrition does not only reflect the hiring policies of an organisation, but also induction/retention strategies, training methodologies, work culture and many other factors. Munje reminds that it costs the company valuable time, money and often credibility (especially where employees develop relationships with customers). “Some companies just look at the employee turnover in terms of the cost (based on the PwC Saratoga Institute theory) involved in the hiring and training of individuals. Others look at the opportunity lost and its cost. Sometimes, companies also use the figure between 50 percent and 200 percent of the annualised salary.”
Organisations aim to reduce voluntary attrition of productive employees and encourage unproductive staff to leave its fold. “It makes way for career progression, new thinking and innovation. However, what that number should be again differs from industry to industry and from country to country as economies vary. The demand vs supply of talent/resources plays a critical role too. What is considered a healthy attrition number in an industry in India may not be so in a more stagnant economy where no new jobs are being created,” explains Noronha. Nevertheless, zero attrition is unimaginable and unhealthy for any organisation.

Attrition Rate=Left Employees/Total No.of Employees*100 Supp Left Employees=50 Total No.of Employees=200. Attrition=50/200*100 Then We get Attrition rate.

Svnmba your calculation is not valid. First find the average no. of employees. then follow below calculation. Attrition % = (Total no. of resigned / Average no of Employees ) * 100 Som

Calculation of Attrition Rate:
Total no.of Resignation/Total no. of Employee + Total no.of new Employee - Total no. of Resignation x 100
Ex: Total no.of Resignation: 2
Total no. of Employee:20
Total no.of new Employee:2
Total no. of Resignation:2
2/20+2-2 x100 = 10%

Dear,
It is so simple to calculate attrition rate, the formulae is No. of employees left during a particular month / Actual balance at the end of that particular month x 100.
For example you have opening balance of 100 employees, 10 of them left during the month and 10 joined your percentage of attrition is 10% (10/100)x100
