This also represents percentages of employees moving to other positions. For example: 46% of CSRs stayed in their current position, while 8% were promoted to Teller Supervisors and 5% were promoted to Assistant Branch Managers. Based on the probabilities above you should be able to forecast the number of employees moving into other positions. For example: 336 tellers remained in their current position, 64 moved to CSR, 20 moved to Teller Supervisor and 180 left the company. The left column of the chart represents the positions available in the company. (1) Teller (2) Customer Service Representative (3) Assistant Branch Manager (4) Loan Officer (5) Branch Manager. The Next year projected is the number of employees that will be in each position and how many will leave (1-5 represents the positions in column 2.)
