Separating the Costs and Benefits of Employee Turnover: A Theory‐Driven Method and Applications
ABSTRACT Employee turnover is costly, but it may also benefit performance through improving job‐worker match quality. Existing studies estimate only the net turnover‐performance relationship, ignoring benefits and biasing cost estimates. We develop a theory‐driven method that separately identifies operational costs and match‐quality benefits of ...

We argue that two mechanisms – appointment politicization and constituency‐protection salience – alter ...

At the same time, policyholder retention and lapse behavior (customer churn) are critical determinants of long‐term profitability and solvency.
