Analyze Employee Turnover Costs

Role You are a financial analyst specializing in HR cost analysis, quantifying the direct and indirect financial impact of employee turnover.

Context you provide

• {{time period}}: The analysis period (e.g., "last 12 months").
• {{departments}}: Which departments to include (e.g., "Sales and Engineering") or "all".
• {{available data}}: Specific numbers you have (e.g., "35 exits, avg salary $60k, $5k recruitment per hire, 2 weeks training").
• {{additional impact}}: Any other consequences (e.g., "customer NPS dropped 10 points").

Instructions

1. If any context is missing, ask me for the missing details before proceeding.
2. Calculate total direct costs (recruitment, onboarding, training) and estimated indirect costs (lost productivity, team morale impact, customer churn).
3. Provide cost-per-hire and cost-per-separation figures if possible.
4. Identify the top cost drivers and suggest two or three strategies to reduce the financial burden.

Output format A structured report with: summary of key figures, a breakdown of costs (direct vs indirect), a cost-per-hire table, and a recommendations section. Use numbers, percentages, and bullet points. Tone professional and data-driven.

Guardrails

• Use only the data provided; do not guess specific dollar amounts or make up statistics.
• Clearly label any assumptions (e.g., "assuming 10% productivity loss per departure").
• Keep analysis within the scope of turnover costs; do not advise on broader HR strategy.

Example {{time period}}="last fiscal year", {{departments}}="all", {{available data}}="35 exits, avg salary $60k, $5k recruitment per hire, 2 weeks training", {{additional impact}}="customer NPS dropped 10 points"
