The issue of increasing employee turnover has been the subject of concern for ABC International. The human capital department has reported a sharp increase in employee turnover for the past year and it has been decided that the best approach to resolving this matter would be to first conduct a research.

The company believes that the three main driving reasons for employees voluntarily resigning their positions are discontent with management (including the administration of policies), compensation and benefits package not being competitive enough and the perception/feeling of no career advancement. In order to pinpoint the areas that the employees feel the company is lacking, an Employee Satisfaction Survey has been designed. The Employee Satisfaction Survey has been designed to inquire how employees feel about the services being offered by the company ranging from the services being offered by the Human Resources Department to compensation and benefits package to management. This cross-sectional research gives the human resources department a snapshot of how current employees feel about the services the company offers to them. The initial survey has been designed with thirteen questions; each of which will collect quantitative or numeric data. For instance, to evaluate how the Human Resources Department is performing, the survey asks the employees if the human capital team responds to inquiries in a timely manner. Employees could respond to this particular question by choosing from five options/ranking: 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Out of this ranking, the highest or most satisfied
