Mentoring Construction Employees

August 9, 2023

Employees stay with companies as they become embedded in their jobs and their communities. As they participate in their professional and community life, they develop a web of connections and relationships, both on and off the job. Leaving a job would require severing or rearranging these social and value networks. The more embedded employees are in an organization, the more likely they are to stay.
