of workers who leave a company over a certain period of time. Most of these

companies have poor management relationships. There are employees that leave due

to the work being too much. Employees can sometimes be so overworked and they

don't get paid enough for that job. When employees think their salary is not enough for

how much they work, they tend to leave and try to find a different job where they could

earn more. Some may work with toxic co-workers or don't like the way their co-workers

others, play favorites, or even mistreat their subordinates. It's crucial to acknowledge
employees when they deserve it since they want to feel that the work they're doing is

possibility of earning more elsewhere. There are businesses in every sector that pay

well and some that pay poorly. Due to inadequate pay, many employees leave their

companies.

high degree of high turnover. The research conducted by Ondigi (2012) investigated

factors affecting turnover in the context of three and five star hotels in Kenya and

benefits could influence turnover intentions. They further note that workers who view

their organization as experiencing a difficult financial situation may foresee future layoffs

and preemptively quit. Philips (1990) reveals that turnover has many hidden or invisible

costs and these invisible costs are the result of incoming employees, co-workers closely

associated with incoming employees, co-workers closely associated with departing

Q&A

Management relations and employee turnover of employees of fast food chain

companies in Davao City

1. How can you reduce the turnover rate of your employees?

According to the study of Al-Hussain et.al (2021) changes in management

systems and senior management behavior, as well as changes in organizational

variables such as benefit scale, employee participation, and a work environment

that may be valuable to the employee and can reduce employee turnover.

2. How do you handle toxic employees at work?

- The best way to deal with toxic employees is to speak to them, show empathy,

and try to understand why they have acted in such a toxic way at work.

Document the discussion and keep a record of all concerns made by other team

members. Give your employee constructive criticism in both public and private

settings.

3. When your manager yells, it could make you want to fight back, hide or even quit

your job. So how will you manage your poor relationship with manager?

- According to Manzoni ,an Italian novelist and philosopher, if you have a feeling

that your boss or manager isn’t keen on you, the first question you need to ask, ,

is whether you’re sure the problem is you. He suggests you “try to figure out

whether there is specific annoyance directed at you.” If your manager interacts


with you differently from your colleagues, then yes, “it probably is something

about you.” If you have done something to undermine your manager or lose their

trust, it’s up to you to take responsibility. Acknowledge that you’re at fault and

apologize. The good news is that even strained professional relationships can be

repaired. The key is to “assure your manager that you want to work on” things

and “ask for help in getting back on track,”.

manager favors or shows preferential treatment to certain individuals or groups. How

do you deal with blatant favoritism at work?

Along, 2016), if you suspect you are the one being favored unfairly, Speak up.

Have a conversation with your boss or with HR to figure out how to correct the

situation, “Ultimately, there is no upside to favoritism. If you’re being singled out

as a favorite and advancing purely because of that, you’re going to end up in a

position you’re not qualified for surrounded by resentful and unsupportive peers.”

If you’re earning the opportunities you’re receiving, but others are perceiving it as

a favoritism, they may just be undermining your hard work.

loss productivity, be forced to recruit new employees, suffer from lower morale,

place.

companies, employees are more likely to quit over issues such as low pay, poor

management or feeling unappreciated. High turnover can then lower employee

morale further, leading to a downward spiral of increasingly high turnover and

lower morale. Employees with higher morale, in contrast, are less likely to leave

even if their pay is low.

9. Why employee turnover is a problem?

company. Every time an employee leaves it takes even more resources to return

to the same level of productivity or level of performance that you had before. On

of the high costs associated with it.
