Sally Yuen, the Director of HRM for DP Cannery, faced a turnover crisis among employees. The Cannery Manager blamed Sally for not selecting good employees. DP had a regular workforce of 200 and temporary workforce of 150. Temporary employees received higher base salaries than regular employees. An employee attitude survey revealed issues like lack of sick leave for permanent employees and no insurance for temporary employees, which contributed to workforce dissatisfaction and turnover. If she were Sally, the author would choose the best employees, provide training, manage equal wages for all employees, and be transparent about compensation to reduce future complaints.
