Background of the Study
Employee retention refers to the ability of an organization to retain its employees over time by providing a work environment that promotes job satisfaction, career growth, competitive compensation, and work-life balance. In the banking sector, where competition for skilled professionals is high, employee retention is essential for maintaining organizational stability, reducing turnover costs, and enhancing customer service.

Access Bank, one of Nigeria's leading banks, operates in Sokoto State, where employee retention strategies are crucial to its continued success. The bank’s ability to retain employees, particularly skilled and experienced staff, is integral to its ability to maintain its competitive position in the market. While Access Bank has implemented various retention strategies such as training and development programs, competitive salary packages, and employee engagement initiatives, the effectiveness of these strategies in Sokoto State remains understudied.

This study will examine the employee retention strategies implemented by Access Bank in Sokoto State and assess how these strategies impact employee satisfaction, turnover rates, and overall organizational performance.
