What is Involuntary Turnover?
The rate at which employees leave an organization due to employer-initiated separations, including terminations for cause, layoffs, restructuring, and the non-renewal of fixed-term contracts.
Why it matters in hiring
Involuntary Turnover comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
