And the Problem is even bigger than that…

Unproductive employees often create widespread negative effectsSubstantial supervisory time is spent resolving these problemsAnd if resolution is unsuccessful, hiring and retraining are costly

What kind of Problems are we talking about?

Examples include:

These problems result in huge financial costs for employers Annual costs of depression in US
