- Training and onboarding - average $1,286 per employee
- Lost productivity during vacancy and ramp-up - up to 28 weeks
- Impact on team morale and productivity
Productivity Gains
Research shows that recognition programs drive significant productivity improvements through:
- 12% higher productivity in recognized employees

ROI Calculation Method
Our ROI calculator uses conservative estimates based on extensive research:
- Retention Savings = (Reduced Turnover × Avg. Salary × Replacement Cost Multiple)
- Productivity Gain = (Number of Employees × Avg. Salary × Productivity Increase)
- Total ROI = (Retention Savings + Productivity Gain) ÷ Recognition Investment
