Calculation Methodology

The turnover cost calculation is based on widely cited research from the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) and the Center for American Progress, which estimate replacement costs at 50–200% of an employee's annual salary depending on role complexity.

The 35% turnover reduction estimate is based on meta-analyses of pre-employment assessment effectiveness published in the Journal of Applied Psychology, which show that validated assessments reduce first-year turnover by 25–45% on average.

Replacement costs include direct costs (recruiting, interviewing, onboarding) and indirect costs (lost productivity, institutional knowledge, team disruption, management time).
