Employee turnover rate
This measure determines the employee turnover rate, which is calculated by dividing total employees terminated (both voluntary and involuntary) by the average number of employees for the period (sum of employees in the start and end of the reporting period divided by two), multiplied by 100 percent. It is part of a set of Process Efficiency measures that help companies optimize their process group "redeploy and retire employees".
