operationalbehavioral · retention · percentage · organization

The percentage of employees who remain with the organization over a defined period.

How it’s computed

Formula: (Employees retained over period ÷ Employees at start of period) × 100
Measurement model: operational (a formula over systems data) — not a reflective survey scale; “reliability” here means data quality, not internal consistency
