UK Care Sector Retention: Better or Worse?
Thursday 12th October 2023
10am – 11am | Virtual Meeting
Has the dial shifted, or are we still suffering from chronic high turnover?
Cohesion delivers recruitment and workforce solutions for social care that improve results. Every year we complete thousands of exit and retention interviews for front-line care workers.
And every year we scrutinise the data for trends and indicators.
While we know there hasn’t been a radical change in the last twelve months, our analysis will share what different stakeholders in your organisation can do to impact retention and what the top reasons why care workers stay and go are.
