Reduce employee turnover with GiftCentral+

Stop the revolving door of talent. In a region where nearly three-quarters of employees are looking for new jobs, retaining your top performers is more critical than ever.

With 72% of employees in Sub-Saharan Africa actively seeking a new job, the chances of losing key staff are high. For business leaders, HR professionals, and operations managers, this is a wake-up call.

The question is no longer if youโ€™ll be impacted by high turnover, but when, and how much it will cost your business.

Employee departures donโ€™t come cheap.

According to REMchannelโ€™s 2023 HR Quarterly Report, South African businesses are spending R18.5 billion replacing lost talent.

But the true cost runs deeper:

  • High turnover increases workloads for those who remain with 37% of employees stepping into roles left vacant.
  • 35% report growing responsibilities without matching compensation.
  • 62% of employees in Sub-Saharan Africa report disengagement.
  • 47% experience workplace stress.

These warning signs are impossible to ignore. The risks go beyond numbers as they erode your companyโ€™s culture, productivity, and long-term performance.
