However, in the second half of the year, 200 employees were laid off and no new hiring took place. What is Lumina's turnover rate for 2014

Answer 1

Answer:

4 %

Explanation:

Employee turnover rate describes the rate at which employees leave a company, either voluntary or involuntary. It includes employees that separate from the organization only,  but not internal movements.

The formula for calculating employee turnover is

Employee turnover = 200/4950 x 100

=4 %
