      A recent study, done by Harvard Business School, concluded that the real problem with attracting and retaining employees has more to do with the workplace environment, not pay or benefits. While the study did find that an adequate pay plan and offering an attractive benefits package did help with recruiting and retention, it’s not enough to satisfy the needs of employees, especially those of front-line workers.
      The study also stated that in 2021, many companies were convinced that giving raises, sign-on bonuses, and other perks would solve the worker shortage problem and prevent people from quitting. However, this strategy did not work. So, what does work regarding attracting quality people and keeping them employed?
      Essentially, it all comes down to the culture of your company.  Management: do all it can to consider the individual needs of your employees. Your employees want to feel that they have a voice, that their opinion counts, and that their role in your company is both respected and recognized. Yes, pay and a great benefits package will go a long way toward making your employees feel secure, but that’s only financial security. People want more than money.
      To attract and keep top talent requires creating a company that people feel proud to work for. You need to reach the hearts and minds of your employees. Become a leader that people are enthusiastic about working for. You want your employees bragging to their friends and family that your shop is a great place to work!
      Step one to attracting and retaining quality employees: Create an amazing workplace environment for your employees!  Trust me, happy employees make happy shop owners too!

      Join 3 shop owners as they share some great stories and wisdom about what works and what doesn't when talking about pay. Can you show how to earn the pay they want? How can you bring the team together when there are earning discrepancies?

      Show Notes:
      When in doubt about what to list as pay in an ad, look at your top compensated tech and use that as a benchmark.  Commitment to training- investment, not a liability, not a cost. It’s always best to put your best foot forward with respect to salary in an ad. “What’s the highest pay level you feel comfortable having a conversation about?” In other words, “If you were sitting across your desk from a tech and they asked for that salary/compensation, do you feel comfortable having a conversation where you show them how they can earn that level of income?” (production and efficiency levels needed + salary, bonuses, profit sharing, etc.) Changing the perception of your technicians not wanting to hire another. Asked, “Did your income get better or worse?” Sharing profit and loss, where and how the shop will continue to grow. Make sure your salaries and job titles match up and are in alignment with market rates.(you can verify this on Indeed Hiring Insights) As the owner- look at yourself from the inside out. Make yourself worthy of the top employees. What is the perception of your business from the outside? Your business is a reflection of yourself. Interviewing technicians- you will spend more time at work than at home. Is 1-hour interview worthy of a ‘marriage?’ Listen closely to the interviewee’s questions. Get your team involved in the process, and consider a trial period. Comebacks- learning experiences with the whole team, quality control employee Zero sum decision making- knowing what you know now, would you make the investment in XYZ, if you wouldn't make that decision again, move on.
