4.4 . Impact on Retention
How long workers plan to stay in the factory is usually a good indicator for capturing possible changes in worker retention . The survey shows that retention was positively correlated with workers ’ satisfaction with the factory . Therefore , we observed that the FCFS program had similar positive impact on worker retention as workers ’ satisfaction with the factory . Chart 17 indicates that 88 % of the participants planned to stay in the factory for at least two years , a 22 % increase from the baseline and 17 % more than the final non -‐ participants .
" This project is very inspirational , particularly in how to retain workers in ways other than salary .”
