The length of service at the company is critical in determining employee turnover because it provides insight into the tenure and stability of employees within the organization. A longer length of service typically suggests that employees are satisfied with their roles and the company culture, which can correlate with lower turnover rates. On the other hand, a shorter length of service might indicate issues with job satisfaction, workplace environment, or career advancement opportunities, which can drive employees to leave.

By analyzing the length of service data, property managers can identify patterns related to turnover and determine if certain employee groups tend to leave after a specific period. This information can guide strategies for retention, such as improvements in onboarding processes, career development opportunities, and overall employee engagement efforts. Understanding turnover in relation to length of service can help organizations take proactive measures to enhance retention and foster a more stable workforce.
