Thank You, Next: Why Employees Break Up with Organizations is the kind of topic that looks straightforward until it collides with the speed, ambiguity, and competing demands of supervision meetings, staff training, clinic systems, and performance review. In Why Employees Break Up with Organizations, for this course, the practical stakes show up in better performance, lower drift, and more sustainable team development, not in abstract discussion alone.

Join Free →Turnover is a costly issue in ABA organizations (Molko, 2018; Wine, Osborne, & Newcomb, 2020). Estimates suggest that ABA organizations' turnover rates for frontline staff range anywhere from 30-75%. Kazemi et al. (2015) identified several factors that may predict a behavioral technician's intent to leave an organization. All of these factors can and should be consistently analyzed through job analysis within organizations. This presentation will introduce a job analysis tool that organizations can use to regularly assess those factors identified as being predictors of intent to turnover and determine changes that could be made to increase the likelihood of employee retention.
