Why are your HVAC employees leaving you

Why are your HVAC employees leaving you

If you run a HVAC outfit, you know all too well how difficult it is to find good people to work for you. Things get even more difficult when you loose someone.

Losing an employee can set you back significantly, especially if you have a small team, that is already stretched out to the max.

We tried looking at the other side, we wanted to listen to what employees had to say. So we conducted a survey of 150 people who worked at HVAC dealerships and switched jobs in the last 6 months, and we asked them to tell us a few reasons why they switched jobs.

Here is what the employees has to say:

Reasons for leaving Votes % Votes
Low pay 135 90%
No over time pay 96 64%
No career progress 97 65%
Not being appreciated 71 47%
No scheduled pay raise 102 68%
Long working hours 67 45%
Bad supervisor 86 57%
No training 45 30%
Cramped working space 39 26%
No union 16 11%

 

This survey was conducted by the new management of www.HVACing.com who wanted to really wrap their minds around solving the problems of employee turnover in the HVAC industry. The best way to do this was to start paying attention to what the employees had to say.
