Chart of the Day: Guess which industries have highest turnover rate

Singapore resignation rate hits 2%.

According to MoM, both the average monthly recruitment and resignation rates stabilised in the first quarter of 2013. The seasonally adjusted recruitment and resignation rates were 2.8% and 2.0% respectively, unchanged from the fourth quarter of 2012.

On a non-seasonally adjusted basis, the recruitment rate at 2.7% and resignation rate at 2.1% were the same as a year ago. Industries with the highest turnover included retail trade (recruitment: 4.8%; resignation: 5.0%), food & beverage services (4.5%; 4.5%), security & investigation (6.4%; 4.2%) and cleaning & landscaping (4.9%; 4.4%).

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
