INTRODUCTION
Productivity is an easy, clean financial calculation: How many workers or hours does it take to create a certain level of output, revenue or profits? But in the age of digital transformation, as organizations look to enhance and offload human work with AI-enabled technologies, it becomes more important than ever to measure the human values of high performance—creativity, agility, empathy.
With advancing technologies, many organizations are focused more than ever on recruiting—particularly for skills they need to succeed, such as expertise in data science, cybersecurity and artificial intelligence. These hard-to-find and hard-to-hire skills—like so many other skilled professions—cost a lot to recruit. With labor pools shrinking, retaining talent at every level is critical. Recruiting is more expensive than retention, which can be optimized via training or creating a culture of constant learning. Choosing recruitment over retention also has a negative effect on employees, who are left to wonder why their work seems to have less value than that of a new employee.
In this environment, it becomes clear that value lies in the engagement of employees—making sure they are actively contributing to the company while learning new skills and advancing their own careers. But how to measure something as intangible as engagement?
To find out, Forbes Insights together with SilkRoad conducted a survey of 212 U.S.-based CFOs (and equivalents) to explore how financial executives approach and measure the benefits of engagement and the true cost of disengagement.
KEY FINDINGS
KEEPING WANTED EMPLOYEES IS A CHALLENGE, report nearly two-thirds of CFOs.
THE COST OF UNWANTED TURNOVER accounts for 25% to 50% of labor costs for one in four CFOs. One in 10 say it eats up more than 50% of labor costs.
PRIMARY CAUSE OF UNWANTED TURNOVER is poor employee engagement.
INCREASING EMPLOYEE RETENTION THROUGH BETTER ENGAGEMENT has been adopted by one in three organizations.
PRODUCTIVITY IS THE TOP METRIC AND BENEFIT OF ENGAGEMENT. Fifty-one percent use productivity to measure new-hire engagement from a financial perspective, and it is the top benefit of having engaged employees (33%).
THE MOST POPULAR APPROACH TO IMPROVING RETENTION is increasing pay and benefits, followed closely by engaging employees and empowering them to make decisions.
THE FINANCE FUNCTION HAS AN IMPORTANT ROLE TO PLAY in determining how employee onboarding and engagement affect productivity and labor costs, according to 88% of CFOs.

Employee churn is expensive. Replacing and training new employees costs time and money. One in four CFOs say that unwanted turnover accounts for 25% to 50% of labor costs. One in 10 say it eats up more than 50% of labor costs (Figure 1). But the costs don’t stop there. CFOs cite lost productivity, lost sales and additional recruitment and onboarding costs. They are just as concerned about harder-to-measure metrics: diminished customer experience, morale issues and loss of agility to respond to changing markets (Figure 2).
When it comes to hiring and keeping the best talent, these are challenging times for most organizations. Unemployment is falling, exacerbating the talent gap in many fields. Rapidly shifting business and operating models demand an agile workforce at the same time that process automation and artificial intelligence are changing the nature of many occupations. It’s no surprise
that unwanted turnover is a growing problem for most organizations. Nearly two-thirds of CFOs say their firm has a hard time holding on to the employees they want.
The average cos t of hi r ing and t raining a new employee at a large company runs around $100,000, says Tracey Doi, CFO at Toyota Motor North America. For manufacturing jobs that require a level of skill and

THE HIGH-AUTOMATION, HIGH-TURNOVER PARADOX
Firms with higher levels of automation also have much higher levels of unwanted turnover. Nearly a third of highly automated organizations lose more than 50% of their new hires in the first year, and one out of 10 say goodbye to a stunning 75% of their employees in the first year—far higher than at less automated firms. Firms with high turnover are also more likely to be pursuing greater automation. A majority—84%—of high-turnover firms have automated more than 25% of tasks. Only 15% of low-turnover firms have reached that level of automation.
This raises some questions about cause and effect: Are firms that are prone to high turnover automating to overcome labor problems? Or is automation leading to high turnover? One clue: The survey reveals that labor costs play a bigger role in technology decisions for highly automated firms than for less automated firms, supporting the idea that high labor costs may be driving automation at some organizations. Regardless of whether technology and automation can replace human power in a company or industry, neglecting employees in terms of true orientation and acculturation to the company has a consistently negative impact. A high level of unwanted turnover at any organization underscores the need to find new ways to hire wisely, promote engagement and value adaptability.
specialization, the cost is even higher. At that level of investment, the company does everything it can to maintain its low attrition rate—the average tenure is 11 to 12 years—and ensure employees “bring their full self to work every day.”
Doi feels the ef fects of the competitive market in her own field as well. The average tenure for young
accounting and finance professionals in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, where Toyota Motor North America is headquartered, stands at just over two years, says Doi. “I am determined to beat that,” she says. “The idea of having to recruit and train, hire and rehire for the same job is not acceptable.”

followed by lack of opportunity and inadequate pay (Figure 3). Af ter years of stagnant wage growth, CFOs recognize that increasing pay can help keep employees from leaving. Keeping them happy may not be so easy, however. Many organizations are also trying to improve engagement, empower employees to make decisions, and provide early mentoring and better training opportunities along with higher pay (Figure 4).

Figure 6. What percentage of your company’s labor costs are related to unwanted turnover?
Organizations with low turnover take a particularly proactive approach to measuring and promoting engagement at every stage of employment. We have singled out some of their responses here for comparison with high-turnover firms. Low-turnover firms are those where less than 10% of employees leave in the first year. High-turnover firms lose more than 25% in the first year.
First, there is the stark difference in how much labor expenditure goes to productive workers and how much walks out the door, along with all the recruitment and training dollars already spent on them. Eight out of 10 high-turnover firms say that more than a quarter of their company’s labor costs go to unwanted turnover, with three out of 10 saying that employee churn eats up more than half of total labor costs. That is a stark contrast to low-turnover firms, with 90% reporting that unwanted turnover accounts for less than 25% of labor costs.
Low-turnover organizations put far more emphasis on engagement. When asked how they keep employees, CFOs at low-turnover firms say they focus on engagement and opportunity. Why do employees leave in droves at other firms? High-turnover firms blame culture and pay as the top reasons they lose wanted employees (Figure 7).
One quality that stands out among low-turnover firms is the multipronged approach they take to keep employees, with a focus on increasing pay and improving engagement, followed by empowering employees to make decisions and offering better training and early mentoring opportunities (Figure 8).
Nearly all low-turnover firms (92%) have thought through an onboarding process that helps with retention. In contrast, 20% of high-turnover firms do not have an onboarding process.

Engagement is strongly connected to business outcomes that are essential to an organization’s financial success, including productivity, profitability and customer ratings, according to extensive research conducted by Gallup. “Engaged employees are the ones who are the most likely to drive the innovation, growth and revenue that their companies desperately need. These engaged workers build new products and services, generate new ideas, create new customers
and ultimately help spur the economy to create more good jobs,” according to Gallup.
CFOs clearly recognize the value of an engaged workforce to the present and future success of the enterprise. They see a strong connection between having the right skills in place in an engaged workforce and reaching key strategic goals of growth, profitability and creating a better customer experience. These

strategic goals form the basis for how CFOs assess workforce performance and value (Figure 10).
Customer satisfaction stands out in particular. It is one of the top three strategic goals named by CFOs. Customer retention and growth is one of the top three factors that will decide whether those goals are met (Figure 11). And CFOs recognize that happy customers are the greatest measure of workforce performance and value (Figure 12). Ultimately, all of the other top workforce measures—revenue growth, innovation and product quality—relate to creating a product or service that customers want, need and appreciate.
There is strong evidence of the link between employee and customer satisfaction. Forbes Insights research reveals leaders in customer engagement are four times more likely to be experiencing growth of more than 10% and are three times more likely to be in the top quartile in Net Promoter Score, which measures customers’ willingness to recommend a company’s products or services to others.
The effects that disengaged employees have on customer experience are among the most overlooked in all companies, according to “Why CFOs Should Care About Customer Experience—What They Need to Understand About Its Impact on Revenue, Retention and Brand Image,” an article on business2community.com. “Engaged employees directly affect the experience of the customer, and very often the first impression of a potential customer.” CFOs may not see the relevance of employee engagement, but they will see the impact on revenue.

“Human capital may be the biggest asset at many organizations, but measuring the value of each employee is not a straightforward financial calculation. Experience has shown us that an engaged and productive workforce has a significant impact on a company’s performance. While this is not as a balance sheet asset, there are ways to measure, indirectly, the value of an engaged, productive workforce,” says Richard Clark, chief accounting officer and corporate controller at Accenture, the global professional services company.
Having an engaged workforce is one of the top 10 factors in meeting strategic goals. But keeping employees engaged is an ongoing effort. Only four in 10 CFOs believe that 75% or more of their workforce is truly engaged. And only one in three organizations aim to increase employee retention through better engagement.
How do you measure whether employees are engaged? Regular surveys may be the way that most organizations carry this out, as a means to give employees a voice.
Seventy-two percent of CFOs say their organization asks employees about job satisfaction through surveys. But many CFOs do not trust the data they see related to engagement and exit surveys. Only 28% of CFOs rely on engagement survey results. And just under half say they understand and can measure the true causes behind unwanted turnover extremely well (Figure 14).
CFOs struggling to understand why employees leave see another telling impediment: A third of them believe their leadership is not interested in finding the true causes.
ENGAGEMENT IN ACTION: HOW CFOS MEASURE SUCCESS—AND FAILURE
Figure 13. What is your best estimate about how many of the employees in your organization are truly engaged? (Truly engaged is defined as employees who are on board with the organization’s goals and actively promote them; enjoy their work and the ability to improve their skills; and see them-selves as long-term contributors to an organization: They help create a good working environment.)

Even though some CFOs are clearly indicating that disengagement is a symptom of larger problems at their organization, the overwhelming majority (88%) believe the finance function has an important role to play in determining how employee onboarding and engagement affect productivity and labor costs. And 83% believe the finance function is up to speed on efforts to keep employees engaged. For those who do say the finance
function has a lack of awareness, it’s mainly caused by a lack of cooperation between HR and finance, say 44%.At Toyota Motor North America, the HR function provides data to help every area of the business. “But engagement can’t be an HR-led effort,” says Doi. Most of the company’s engagement efforts have very long-term horizons, and they tend to be bottom-up. The bottom-up approach applies to empowering employees to make technology
THE BOTTOM LINE: ENGAGED EMPLOYEES ARE MORE PRODUCTIVE
For CFOs, productivity is the preferred way to monitor and measure new-hire engagement from a financial perspective. They also name productivity as the top benefit of having engaged employees (Figures 15 and 16).

decisions as well, with finance, IT, HR and other functions as enablers. For Doi, the ROI on engagement initiatives comes in the form of low attrition, better customer support and more efficiency across functions.
What gets measured gets done. However, not many finance executives are tracking common measures that could give better insight into the true cost of disengagement. Only a third monitor the talent-management-related cost of specif ic functions, recruitment versus retention costs, and time to full productivity due to onboarding. One finding is particularly telling: Nearly all CFOs—92%—believe that proper onboarding could decrease or eliminate the heavy costs associated with unwanted turnover. Yet only 27% say their organization is improving onboarding to help retain employees.
In their quest to measure engagement, CFOs can leverage technology. “Automation and cognitive capabilities are changing how we work, allowing CFOs to dramatically reinvent how finance professionals impact the bottom line. Individuals will be able to invest their time on activities that drive more value to the organization, resulting in higher levels of engagement,” points out Accenture’s Clark. This applies to measuring—and fostering—engagement as well. “The next wave of engagement is thinking about how we enable the individual. How do we create an environment where individuals can architect better engagement for themselves?” he asks. “Intelligent technologies are enabling this space to evolve very quickly.”

Hiring—and keeping—the best talent is crucial for achieving financial and strategic goals. Controlling labor costs, while at the same time making sure that the company’s goals are being met, ultimately falls on the CFO.
It is clear that CFOs recognize the value of an engaged workforce—and the cost of disengagement—at a time of breathtaking change in business models, enterprise structures and entire occupations. They also recognize that the financial function has an important role to play in determining how employee onboarding and engagement affect productivity and labor costs. However, there is a disconnect between realizing where productivity is lost through disengaged employees and working with the HR department to change how the organization onboards. Through strategic onboarding—going beyond transactional forms to meaningful orientation and ongoing acculturation—CFOs may start to see their productivity and customer retention increase, along with a decrease in turnover rates among employees.
Successful CFOs recognize that:
• THE COST OF UNWANTED TURNOVER IS TOO HIGH, AND RETENTION RATES ARE LESS THAN OPTIMAL, PUSHING UP LABOR COSTS. This issue is becoming even more acute as the unemployment rate is falling and companies need specific skills to stay competitive.
• POOR EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT IS THE TOP CAUSE OF UNWANTED EMPLOYEE TURNOVER, and improving employee engagement, along with increasing pay and benefits, is the most effective
way to keep unwanted turnover in check. Low-turnover companies pay much more attention to employee engagement than high-turnover ones.
• THE AGE OF AUTOMATION MAY LEAD TO HIGHER UNWANTED TURNOVER, further escalating labor costs. Companies need to find new ways to keep employees engaged and working alongside technology.
• EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT IS ONE OF THE TOP FACTORS IN RAISING PRODUCTIVITY, achieving strategic goals and customer satisfaction. Yet few CFOs believe that a majority of their workforce is engaged.
• TRADITIONAL METRICS TO MEASURE UNWANTED EMPLOYEE TURNOVER ARE NOT ADEQUATE TO MEASURE ENGAGEMENT. CFOs can leverage data-driven technologies for a more precise measurement of employee engagement.
• ONBOARDING CAN DECREASE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH UNWANTED TURNOVER, and a more thorough and thoughtful onboarding process should play a bigger role to improve retention and keep labor costs down.
