DESCRIPTION:Please join us for lunch on Tuesday\, April 12\, for\n\nTackling the Hidden Costs of Worker and Workplace Instability\n\nPresented by John Leitnaker\, Roane County Cooperative Ministries\n\nMany entry-level and low-wage employees often live in a "tyranny of the moment" created by daily instability\, and this results in absenteeism\, high turnover rates\, reduced productivity   in short\, Workplace Instability.\n\n \n\nEach employee who leaves the workplace takes along thousands of dollars in lost profitability and leaves the business to pay the cost of finding and training a replacement. When low-wage employees' lives are unpredictable and unstable\, it is unlikely that they will stay with one company for long. \n\n \n\nJoin John Leitnaker and learn the answers to:\n\n\n	What does instability cost?\n	What does instability look like? \n	What causes it?\n	What can be done?\n\n  \n\nDon't accept high turnover in low-wage positions as an inevitable cost.
