Answer
As a senior HR leader, following action can be taken –
To improve employee morale and loyalty –
Their wages or salary must be increased at the par of the Industry so they may have genuine cause to be loyal to the company. Higher income also brings high morale and thus, their morale will also be high.
Employee should be rewarded or at least appraised time to time for their efforts and contribution to the company. On the other hand, they shouldn’t be harshly punished for their mistakes. Rather, they should be politely warned and try to improve their skill and knowledge so they don’t repeat mistakes. Turning their mistakes into learning opportunity is the best way to improve the skills and keep their morale high.
Reduce employee turn over
Salary or wages at par of Industry is the best way to retain the skilled employees. Beside it, proper living facilities with basic amenities, humane condition of workstations and sufficient time gap between the job shifts are some of the perquisites that help to reduce the employee turnover.
Reduce worker's safety related incidents reported at the facility
There must be sufficient safety measures at the workstations. Safety standards must be adhered to and employees should be given proper training of preventing any accident. Beside it, employee insurance scheme should be purchased to cover the loss in the case of disability and death.
