Employee Turnover Driver Analysis Agent

Turnover hot spots with causes and tracked retention actions

Employee Turnover Driver Analysis Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

Each quarter HR needs to know who is leaving, from where and why, but the data sits in the HR system and exit surveys. This agent pulls leavers and headcount, separates planned exits such as restructures from voluntary ones, and calculates turnover by team, manager, tenure and role. It flags hot spots where voluntary turnover is above 1.5 times the company rate and adds exit survey themes. For each hot spot it checks whether the group is large enough to mean something and whether the cause is clear. If not, it proposes stay interviews or a short pulse survey for that group. It then drafts retention actions tied to the causes and reviews whether last quarter's actions worked. The HR leader approves actions and how results are shared with managers. Edge case: a team was restructured, so planned exits are reported apart from voluntary turnover.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

An example run

What happensIn Q2, company voluntary turnover was 14%, but customer support was at 31%. Exit data mentioned schedules, yet only 6 surveys came back, so the check failed. The agent proposed stay interviews with 12 support agents. Their answers pointed to weekend rotas. It drafted a rota trial as the retention action, and the HR leader approved it and the manager briefing.
