Background of the Study
Employee retention is a critical factor in organizational performance, particularly in the healthcare sector, where skilled personnel directly influence service quality and patient outcomes. Retention strategies, including competitive compensation, career development opportunities, and a positive work environment, are essential in addressing workforce challenges (Bakker & Demerouti, 2023).
Healthcare firms in Jigawa State face high employee turnover rates due to factors such as inadequate pay, limited professional growth, and challenging working conditions. This study evaluates the impact of employee retention strategies on organizational performance.
