Turnover Impact

Leadership

Retirement is more attractive as more income is allowed under social security and more attractive retirement packages are offered

Private industry is providing better pay and better opportunities as new industries emerge and unemployment remains low

Faculty

Large numbers of permanent faculty are nearing retirement.

At MCCD, at least 25% of our faculty will be able to retire before June, 2005

Technology Staff

Retaining technology talent on public employment salaries is more and more difficult as private industry offers better pay and stock options

Our booming economy keeps the demand for technology talent very high

Part-Time/Adjunct Faculty

Low unemployment in private industry makes the low wages of adjunct faculty less attractive

Better opportunities for part-time work in private industry exist due to low unemployment

Part-Time Staff

The increasing utilization of part-time staff is a national trend

For the employer no benefits are required resulting in lower cost

For the employee there is more flexibility and the ability to work more than one job
