PCSAO HR/SAFETY COMMITTEE STAFF TURNOVER SURVEY

Attached please find several documents showing the results of the PCSAO HR/Safety Committee’s work to establish baseline data for Ohio PCSAs Staff Turnover rates. We appreciate the PCSAs who completed the short survey. The results are available in several forms:

2007 TURNOVER SURVEY

2006 TURNOVER SURVEY

You may view the results from left to right for each county or statewide total at the bottom. After County name, see the size of County, the total number of staff who left  (including number of full and part-time staff who left) and the number of Direct Service Casework Staff who left. 

Next see the total number of Authorized positions within the agency (including number of full and part-time staff). Next see the total number of authorized Direct Service Casework Staff.  

Next see the Overall turnover rate for all authorized staff (including the rate for full land Part-time staff).  

Finally see the turnover rate for Direct Service Casework Staff.

  • The average turnover rate for caseworker in 2006 was 14%

  • The average turnover rate for caseworkers in 2007 was 14%.   

The goal of the PCSAO HR/Safety Committee was to produce a short survey with a minimum of questions. There were many additional questions we would like to ask but feared the more questions the lower the return rate. 18 members of the HR/Safety Committee plus several members of the PCSAO Board of Trustees did complete a more detailed survey that documented multiple job classifications; departments; sex; level of education; length of employment; reasons for leaving; and would you rehire. That data is being evaluated and a detailed report with various trend data will be published soon.
