Understanding Employee Turnover Basics:
Employee turnover rate measures the percentage of staff leaving over a period. High rates (e.g., above 16% annually) can indicate issues like poor culture or pay, costing SMEs significantly in recruitment. Also check out our staff turnover article and turnover reasons article.

Benchmarks: Average annual rate in Australia is around 16% per AHRI data, varying by industry (e.g., higher in hospitality). Also explore retention tips and HR resources.

Key Components:
1. Period: Choose monthly or annual for relevant calculations.
2. Employees at Start: Headcount at the beginning of the period.
3. Employees at End: Headcount at the end of the period.
4. Separations: Number of employees who left (voluntary or involuntary).
