Never to busy or too small to have an HR Plan

 

 

   

Canadian repair and service facilities that have an HR plan on retention issues in place outperform those that don’t. If your shop is not among the 34% that have a plan in place to deal with recruitment and retention and other HR issues, then here are some reasons why it should:
 

 
  • Shops with HR plans make more money. 50% of those with HR plans have revenue of $1 million or more, compared to 26% of employers who have no HR plan.

     

  • 60% of employers with HR plans saw revenue growth in 2008, compared to 49% for those without.

     

  • Shops with HR plans expect their revenue to grow, on average, by 4.1% for 2009. Employers without HR plans expect an average revenue growth of 3.3%.


These numbers, taken from employer data from the 2009 labour market update study conducted by the Canadian Automotive Repair and Service Council, give a strong indication that having an HR plan in place is paying off for employers.
