Attract better hires and develop current employees with a strong career path program.
BY JULIE SCHWEBER 18 Irrigation & Lighting March 2023
here are some really good reasons for having des- ignated career paths. It sends the right message to your team and becomes part of your employee experience. We’re all fighting for the same pool of talented workers, so why not stand out? Why not
let your development or career path become part of your employer brand? A study by global staffing firm Randstad, Atlanta,
Georgia, found that 73% of employers said that fostering employee development is important. However, only 49% of employees said that companies adhere to this practice. In the same study, between 25%-29% of workers said that a lack of growth opportunities was the main reason for want- ing to quit. And 80% of workers do not think that their current employer offers growth opportunities. A lot of companies may not recognize the value of
career pathing or the practice exists solely as a process in the employee handbook. In an ideal situation, companies make this practice a priority and their employees are well aware of it. Even without a dedicated human resources person, smaller companies should take advantage of career pathing so that structure is communicated and applied consistently. A clear and transparent process is going to help retain employees.
