PREFACE
With the ongoing revolution where innovations are taking place at the blink of aneye, it is impossible to keep the pace with the emerging trends. In organizationwhere Making Things Right in the first instance is the driving motto, perfectionand accuracy are inevitable.
Excellence is an attitude that the whole of thehuman race is born with. It is the environment that makes sure that whether theresult of this attitude is visible or otherwise. A well planned, properly executedand evaluated industrial training helps a lot in inculcating a professional attitude.It provides a linkage between the student and industry to develop an awarenessof industrial approach to problem solving, based on a broad understanding of

During this period, the students get the real, firsthand experience for working in the actual environment. Most of the theoreticalknowledge that has been gained during the course of their studies is put to testhere. Apart from this, the students get an opportunity to learn the skills, whichimmensely helps them in building their career. I had the opportunity to have a realexperience on many ventures, which increased my sphere of knowledge to agreat extent. I was entrusted with a real life project, and gradually become a partof it.

Stitching India together
In India, Vardhman is synonymous with threads. Not just threads for clothes, but for furnishings,wallets, hand bags, suitcases, shoes, car upholstery, tents, industrial applications and even kite-flying.
In each case, users demands differ. Designers expectstrength in some threads, strength and finish in another, the qualities of fusion in a third. Aleather craftsman expects a completely different combination of attributes. An automobilemanufacturer spells out another set of specifications. So does the little boy on the rooftop, the kiteflyer.
Reputed manufacturers and buying houses preferVardhman because of its unswerving commitment to quality and service. The company fulfilsIS/ISO 9001:2000 requirements and the products manufactured are azo free. They meet Oeko-Tex Standard 1OO under stringent environmental norms. Sheer technical competence and servicemakes Vardhman India's one and only flag bearer in threads.

d) Discharge, i.e., termination of an employee because of misconduct or poorperformance.
COST OF EMPLOYEE TURNOVER
The management should try to keep the rate of employee turnover as low as possible because itinvolves preventive and replacement costs.
Preventive costs consist of expenditure incurred on personneladministration, medical benefits, welfare facilities, retirement benefits and compensation.
Replacement costs includes cost of recruitment, induction, training, lossof output etc.

Loss of production in the interval between separation of the old employee and replacement bythe new.
The pay of the learner is in excess of his productivity.
Accident rates of the new employees are always higher.

PROS AND CONS OF EMPLOYEE TURNOVER
High levels of employee turnover have its pros and cons. In some industries, a higher level ofemployee turnover is expected and this is typically accounted for, however in other industries, arapid degree of staff turnover can be costly.
Whether or not high employee turnover is a problem depends on theindustry. Some industries expect and command high turnover, while other kinds of businessesdepend on the longevity of employees in order to thrive, keep costs down and succeed. It'sprobable for most industries high employee turnover is more of a problem than a benefit.
Here are a few pros and cons that are associated with high employee turnover-
-

PROS
Despite the cons, there are also pros to high turnover. Some are industry specific, but others canbe beneficial in a general sense too.
NEW IDEAS- While employees bring knowledge with them, on the flip side people often getlocked into a particular mindset and sometimes see things from a pretty limited perspective.
A turnover of new hires also has good potential for lots of new and fresh ideas, many ofwhich the business could profit from.Group think is sometimes an issue in the workplace anda stream of new employees is a positive in this respect because no one works together longenough to fall into this phenomenon and the organizational challenges that sometimes comeswith.

46/82

POTENTIAL INNOVATION- New and fresh ideas often leads to innovation and businesseswho have high turnover often find themselves able to come up with new products, servicesand ways of doing things.Additionally new hires may see flaws in existing processes or
organizational ways of thinking and if allowed, using their fresh eye and perspective, cantypically offer insight on how to fix existing problems that no one else identified because theyare too close to the process or situation.
Cons
HIGH COST- High cost are one of the biggest drawbacks to high employee turnover. It takesa lot of efforts and resources in the application process to advertise positions, recruit,interview and hire.The costs associated with the hiring process can run steep after a while ifthis is a repeated pattern and the need for new employee recruitment is ongoing.
TIME CONSUMING - Once an employee is brought on board, they need time to learn theirjob and this entails training. It doesn't matter whether or not the training is informal orformal, effort and time of other employees has to be shared in order to bring the new staffmember up to speed.When colleagues are continuously pulled away from their own work totrain new hires, this weighs down on their ability to do their own jobs and can impactproductivity, which is costly.The time invested in the training process is a considered as conof high emplo

47
In the end we can conclude it by saying that, High employee turnover can be costly, or itcan be beneficial, depending on the organization's own goals and objectives. If the turnover isdeemed to be a problem, then the business can look for ways to reduce the high turnover rate, butif it seems the benefits outweigh the drawbacks, business may want to continue as usual.The keyto successfully managing rapid employee turnover is to isolate the problem areas and find ways
to either eliminate or absorb those costs and capitalize on the benefits. If the problem is severethen organizational cultural issues may have to be addressed in order to solve the problem

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
RESEARCH IS A PROCEDURE OF SYSTEMATIC AND LOGICAL APPLICATION OFTHE FUNDAMENTALS OF SCIENCE TO THE GENERAL AND OVERALL QUESTIONSOF A STUDY AND SCIENTIFIC TECHNIQUE WHICH PROVIDE PRECISE TOOLS,SPECIFIC PROCEDURES AND TECHNICAL RATHER THAN PHILOSOPHICAL MEANSFOR GETTING AND ODERING THE DATA PRIOR TO THEIR LOGICAL ANALYSIS ANDMANIPULATION.
DIFFERENT TYPES OF RESEARCH DESIGNS ARE AVAILABLE DEPENDING UPONTHE NATURE OF THE RESEARCH PROJECT, AVAILABILITY OF THE ABLEMANPOWER AND CIRCUMSTANCES.

AN EXPLORATORY RESEARCH WAS CONDUCTED AND THE DATA REQUIRED FORTHE RESEARCH PURPOSE WAS COLLECTED.
BASICALY THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF DATA-
THE PRIMARY DATA.
THE SECONDARY DATA.
THE PRIMARY DATA WAS COLLECTED THROUGHTHE QUESTIONNAIRES AND THE SECONDARY DATA WAS COLLECTED THROUGHTHE INTERNET AND DIFFERENT BOOKS.
Theoretical Framework
Based on stated review of literature and theories, following conceptual framework is devised toconduct this study:|
-
8/3/2019 Employee Turnover New
50/82
50
The impact of employee turnover on the organizational performance will lead to the decrease
the development of industry, which in turn mediates the impact of employee turnover on
performance through mediating their motivation. In the above conceptual framework
demotivation, dissatisfaction of job and better job opportunities are the factors which increases
employee turnover. An increasing rate in employee turnover negatively affects organizational
performance and organization spent more money for hiring and training new employees.
Methodology
Mixed Methodology:
I have used mixed methodology in my proposal because both qualitative and quantitative
methods have been used in research. Mixed method is a philosophical assumption that integrates
qualitative and quantitative research approaches within a simple subject. Its central premise is
that the use of quantitative and qualitative approaches in combination provides a better
understanding of research problems that either approached alone.

The most important thing in the selection of approach is the nature of research problem as my
research problem is twofold in nature. So I have decided to choose mixed methods research
approach as to accommodate my first objective of exploring and understanding the complexity of
the contextual variances in context of Pakistan. I will use interpretivism as a research philosophy
and use semi-structured interview method under the umbrella of qualitative paradigm. Then to
cope with my second objective i.e. to deal with the validity, reliability, and generalizability,
positivism will be chosen supported by survey method in the circumference of quantitativeparadigm. Furthermore this decision is supported by the rationale of availing the merits and
overcoming the demerits of both approaches as discussed by Creswell (2003), the use of multiple
data sets can inform the research, by yielding insight and methodological changes that improve
the study and strengthen findings as well as collecting diverse types of data best provides an
understanding of a research problem.
Research Design:
Selecting Mixed Methods Approach on the basis of Pragmatic Knowledge Claims I have decided
to collect the qualitative and quantitative data in phases using Sequential Exploratory Design in
sequential strategies. A visual view of the sequential strategy is as follows:

During this process qualitative data will be collected using semi-structured interviews in the first
phase of the study through open ended questions. Purposeful sampling will be used to choose
experienced respondents regarding the phenomena under consideration.
On the other hand quantitative data will be collected through questionnaire in the
second phase of the study. Questionnaire including close ended questions will be delivered toselected sample in order to validate the themes emerge from the qualitative phase and to
generalize the findings to a larger population followed by data analysis with the help of SPSS
software.
Sample And Sampling Technique:
I will use convenience sampling technique for data collection. Convenience sampling denotes
choosing settings, groups, individuals that are conveniently available and willing to participate in
the study. I will target industrial sector in Pakistan. I will select 15 industries but for further
research I will take 8 industries.

Data is collected through both qualitative and quantitative method. During this process
qualitative data is collected using semi-structured interviews and surveys in the first phase of the
study through open ended questions supported by probes and prompts to get deep insights and to
keep the respondent on track respectively with time and cost saving approach..
The rational that I will use semi-structured interview method instead of observations or document
study is based on the fact that my research is based on exploring and understanding the
complexity of what contextual variances occur in a specific social setting by taking account of
participants multiple subjectivities, interpretations, and perspectives regarding employee
turnover and organization performance .My decision to use interview over other means of datacollection is influenced by the various arguments presented by different authors. As Wellman
(2001) stated that interviews are very useful because highly specified data can be obtained in a
very short span of time and is also useful in providing a general overview of peoples thoughts.
Further I have decided to choose semi-structured interview that could be argued as the most
important way of conducting a research interview because of its flexibility balanced by structure
and the quality of the data so obtained (Gillham B. 2007),
Choosing interview on other data collection methods i.e. observation or documents is
a decision made on the basis of deep comparative study and critical review of all the methods and
there relative strengths and weakness. Interview method is rational to choose for this study as it
not only provides highly specified data as compare to observation and documents but also, as per
the objectives of my study, it gives deep insights to perceptions and meanings of individuals with
broad yet controlled exposure and scope with the flexibility of opportunity to be learned by the
researcher even if he is not acquaint with this technique earlier.

On the other hand quantitative data is collected through questionnaire in the second phase
of the study. Questionnaire including close ended questions will be delivered to selected sample
in order to validate the themes emerge from the qualitative phase and to generalize the findings to
a larger population followed by data analysis with the help of SPSS software.
Validity and Reliability:Validity refers to issues of whether or not an indicator really measures the concept that it is
advised to measure whereas Reliability us the stability or the consistency of measurement. So
keeping in view my research problem I have choose the mixed method sequential approach in
which preference is given to qualitative` approach so first issue which I will face regarding
validity and reliability is that it does not carry the same meaning as in quantitative approach
However for the first phase which is qualitative I will ensure reliability by comparing coding
among several coders and will see that after transcription whether they will arrive at the same
codes and themes or different one .
In order to ensure accuracy of findings or validity .I will use the following strategies
1-Member Checking: Discussing the summaries of the findings (e.g., themes) with participants
and ask them whether the findings are an accurate reflection of their experiences.
2-Peer Examination: A Doctoral student will serve as peer examiner with the approval of the
supervisor.
3-Clarification of the researcher bias
-
8/3/2019 Employee Turnover New
55/82
55
4-Rich and Thick description to covey the findings
And finally I will use
5-An external auditor to review the entire process
For the second phase which is quantitative in nature reliability means, whether the result is
replicable, whereas validity means whether means of measurement are accurate and whether they
are measuring what they are intend to measure.
So with regards to reliability I will check the results through statistical procedure of internal
consistency and with regards to the validity I will establish the validity of the questionnaire
through content validity (i.e. asking the expert opinion) and of their results through criterionrelated and construct validity(i.e. factor analysis of the measures). Moreover validation of the
instrument will be done through a pilot study and by taking a large sample representative of the
population.
Ethical Consideration:
Developing this proposal as well as during the complete research process, ethical issue should be
deeply and wholly kept into consideration since the introduction of research problem statement
-

till writing and disseminating the whole research. The following ethical issues will be kept under
consideration during the research process and aftermaths
The purpose of study is made clear and simple to be easily understood by the readers as
well as the respondents to avoid any ambiguity at any end.
Precisely yet comprehensive information will be provided to respondents in order to make
them clear about all aspects, objectives and outcomes of the research.
Mutual consent form, permission letter and any other written approval if needed will be
dually signed by both the researcher and the respondent.
Prior time adjustment will be made in order to avoid any interruption in the flow at
research site
It will be made sure to secure and protect the information gathered from respondent to
avoid any harmful consequences for them
Permission to tape the interview and to keep this information on an electronic database
and analyze it for research purpose.
The privacy of the participants would be protected to the maximum extent allowable bylaw.

CONCLUSION
CONCLUSION
Firstly, the company should spend an appropriate amount on recruitment of its employees. Thiswill lead to higher productivity if good employees are recruited in an appropriate manner.
In reality, the rate of employee turnover is healthy in the company.If proper check is being kept on this rate then the company will be benefited. For e.g. - if theemployee turnover in the company reduces from 8% to 4%, then the cost will be reduced,moreover we will have skilled workers to work in the organization and on the other hand thereputation of the company will be improved.

SUGGESTIONS
RECOMMENDATIONS TO REDUCE THE EMPLOYEE TURNOVER
1. Focused recruitment
-
8/3/2019 Employee Turnover New
75/82
75
The Company should properly concentrate on their recruitment strategies. The recruitmentprocess should not be complicated or complex. Properly educated and healthy employees shouldbe employed.
2. Recruitment through references
Emphasis on recruitment through references should not be made. If the employee on whosereference the other employees are recruited leaves the company there may be a tendency that theother employees may also leave.
3. Training and development
Proper training and development programs should be conducted for the employees from time totime. With the help of the training the employees will become aware of the work they are doing.Proper training will motivate the employees to work in a more efficient way.
4. Salary according to the market
The salary given to the employees should be according to the market rate. If more salary in given
in the market than what the company is giving for doing the same kind of job, there may be atendency that the employees may leave the organization and this will result in employee turnover.
5. Employee involvement
Every employee working in the company must be given a fair chance to speak or to givesuggestions. If the same is not done the employees may feel neglected. This may result inemployees leaving the organization and shifting to the other.
6. Incentives & bonus
Proper incentives and bonus should be given to the employees in order to motivate them. Thiswill lead to increase in their efficiency and will feel good while performing their jobs. This is theway by which employee turnover can be reduced.
-
8/3/2019 Employee Turnover New
76/82
76
7. Co-operative staff & supervisors
The staff and supervisors should be co-operative with the employees in the company. Theyshould not behave in a harsh or rude manner. If they do so, then the employees may feelfrustrated and they may decide to leave the organization.
8. Entertainment programs
Some sort of entertainment programs should be conducted from time to time for the employees
so that they can become fresh and can come out from the monotony which is being caused bythe continuous working. This will in return increase the interest of the employees and willreduce employee turnover.
9. Bulk recruitment
The employees should be recruited according to the number of persons required for doing aparticular job. Bulk recruitment should be avoided. If more number of employees are recruitedthen required on a particular job then it may lead to reduction in the efficiency of the employeeswhich reduces the productivity and sometimes the employees are forced to leave theorganization if the targets are not met.
10. Performance appraisal
Proper steps should be taken in order to evaluate the performance of the employees and in turnif deviation occurs it should be corrected by taking necessary steps. This will improve theefficiency of the employees and in turn will motivate them to work better. This will create agood feeling in them regarding their job and hence employee turnover will be reduced to anextent.
