Answer:

The correct answer to the question: Organizational demography suggest that attributes such as age or the date of joining should help an organization in:____, would be, E: Predicting employee turnover in the company.

Explanation:

Organizational demography, also known as Organizational ecology, or Population ecology of organizations, is an empirical and theoretical approach of social sciences that deals with the different factors: human, environmental and economic, that play a role in the way that an organization (company, corporation, etc.,) works. Because organizations are such complex reunions of human characteristics, personalities and qualities, organizational demography becomes vital in guiding the different policies and strategies that organizations can use to maintain themselves stable throughout time. Now, from the different characteristics of employees that corporations and organization must always take into account, we find that age and date of joining are really important attributes to keep in mind when predicting employee turnover in a company because these two variables show: the first, age of retirement and thus need for replacement, and the second, date of joining, because this shows the level of engagement of a person and the likelihood that they will need to be replaced, or not.
