EMPLOYEE RETENTION

OVERVIEW

Typically, employee attrition is a major challenge for companies worldwide. The objective of this project was to predict employee attrition for a Multinational software-based company on parameters like Supervisor, wages, distance from home, tenure with company, travelling, overtime etc. This helped the client to make better decisions to curtail employee attrition rate. Current employee related data is collected from company’s internal databases / HR systems using Robotic Process Automation (RPA).

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Employees leave organizations for various reasons and this causes morale issues and ongoing disruptions for internal teams. In order to address this, companies are turning to AI to help minimize attrition. The client is a US based Multinational Software Company that deals with computer hardware, middleware and software. The objective was to predict employee attrition considering parameters like wages, distance from home, tenure with company, overtime, supervisor name etc. This helped them to make better HR decisions to curtail employee attrition rates. After a detailed evaluation of their data, AI Labs used its proprietary Minsky™ AI Engine to optimize the models by using a combination of AI algorithms and prediction attributes. In this case, Minsky™ used historical data for model creation and predicted employee attrition rate by using real time employee data. This solution was optimized and implemented in less than a week.

Typical Employee Retention Challenges:

• Meeting customer deadlines.
• Making a continuous impact on growth and stability of an organization.
• Investing time and money in training individuals to train them in all aspects only to find out that they want to leave the organization.
• Difficult to find replacements to exactly match the unique skill set. At the desired wages.
• Difficulty in managing the shifts.

SOLUTION

After comprehensive evaluation of the client‘s challenges, we used Minsky™ to accurately model historical data to reduce employee attrition rate. This process includes historical data of past employees who left the company. Once the AI Models were generated by Minsky™ for the selected Algorithms, current employee related data was used by Minsky™ to forecast employee attrition possibilities. The current employee related data is collected using Robotic Process Automation (RPA) from company’s internal database. Prediction data Reports/ Dashboards was generated by integrating Minsky™ with 3rd Party data visualization tools like Tableau. In addition, RPA was also used to email employee attrition prospect reports generated by Minsky™ to desired personnel.
