Abstract

The study first finds out whether there is any correlation between high involvement human resource practices (HIHRPs) and employee turnover in the pub industry. We then look more deeply into HIHR practices to determine which of those is likely to impact employee turnover most. We developed our dataset based on a mixed methods approach that explored in depth many different aspects of the research problem. The findings suggest that there is indeed a link between HIHRPs and employee turnover in the pub industry. When looking at the individual practices, the most popular among employees is that of compensation, in particular bonuses based on positive customer surveys. Other practices found likely to have an impact on employee turnover are a reduction of status differences between managers and employees, improved training opportunities and creating a clear career path for employees
