Turnover Cost Calculator

A tool to quantify the real cost of employee turnover.

This calculator includes tangible costs of turnover: recruitment costs, training costs (including managers and peer time), time spent rebuilding institutional knowledge, productivity loss during ramp, and disruption to team workflows.

Turnover costs more than money, and this calculator does not include: hit to team morale, rebuilding trust with a new teammate, damaged employer brand, interrupted product timelines, investor confidence, and increased likelihood of further turnover.

Direct Replacement Costs$60,000
Productivity Loss$30,000
Cost of Turnover$90,000
