Comments on: Employee retention – Why employees stay http://www.ritaashley.com/2010/06/07/employee-retention-why-employees-stay/ Field tested career advice for executives Tue, 01 Mar 2011 20:24:42 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Rita Ashley http://www.ritaashley.com/2010/06/07/employee-retention-why-employees-stay/comment-page-1/#comment-159 Rita Ashley Mon, 05 Jul 2010 00:30:27 +0000 http://www.ritaashley.com/?p=518#comment-159 The reason I submitted my ideas is it is not the employers job to make certain each of us is happy. That is a personal responsibility and for truly healthy people, work is only one aspect of it. The one thing over which the employer may affect, is employee satisfaction. Do they have the tools to be successful, do they understand their job, do they get proper feed back for course correction and do they get recognition. All these go a very long time towards guaranteeing employee satisfaction. Happiness by contrast, is allusive, transitory and different for each of us.

Happy may be an allusive goal,

should be elusive, no?
