When you say "ROI," we ask "How high?"
Getting Value out of Values
At the A Game, we get it.
Your front line is an investment. The high cost of turnover, absenteeism, and poor performance in these critical positions reduces productivity and limits the expected return on your labor dollar.
It's an age old problem. Most employers see skills and process training as the key to increased productivity. But when human resource costs rise, it isn't because employees don't know how to make a sandwich, fasten a bolt or drive a vehicle-it's simply because
they lack the work ethic values of previous generations.
The A Game is cost mitigation
The argument that
'parents and schools should be teaching kids how to work' is inarguable, but it doesn't change the reality that employers ultimately bear the cost of a declining work ethic. You know the decision to absorb that cost is a
no win proposition.
Just the same, some managers feel that it's not worth the time and money to develop work ethic in part-time, hourly employees because
they'll be on the job for less than a year.
Here's some simple math.
- The average cost of replacing a single, minimum wage employee can be upwards of $3,000.
- A $50-$150 investment in Bring Your A Game to Work* increases job performance, productivity, customer service and retention while decreasing absenteeism and theft-loss.
Based on those numbers, it's only logical that employers assume a role in developing work ethic.
