Addressing Employee Attrition For this assignment we will look at the employee attrition data. Ideally, companies would like to keep attrition rates (the proportion of employees leaving a company for other opportunities) as low as possible due to the variable costs and business disruptions that come with replacing productive employees on short notice. In the recent past, before Covid struck, the company had seen an increase in the rate of employee departures. Being a tech company, and with certain skills being rare, employee retention has been a challenge. This has taken a toll on their operations and ability to deliver quality products.
