However, voluntary turnover for non-tenure track faculty was 7.3% last year and 3.7% for tenure track faculty.\u201d<\/p><p>The CUPA-HR research aligns with what Hobdy has personally observed at Montgomery County Community College. \u201cThe retention data, specifically, is on par with what we&#8217;ve experienced initially after the pandemic and we started to return back in person in the workforce. We really started to see an uptick in people resigning and leaving and looking for different work because there was still this fear of coming into the workspace and the concern with safety and health has now shifted to burnout exhaustion, emotional tiredness, and just looking for something different.\u201d<\/p><p>Crace witnessed the same changes at William &amp; Mary. \u201cBefore the pandemic, stress was being overworked, and being stressed was a common discussion as well. Since the pandemic, though, it went from overworked to overwhelmed and from stressed to strained. And while stress is a healthy thing, because it&#8217;s a function of what we care about, strain is unsustainable.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-75405f8 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"75405f8\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-be7c182 ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"be7c182\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f9601a2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f9601a2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%e2%80%9cchronic-too-muchness%e2%80%9d\"><\/span>\u201cChronic Too Muchness\u201d<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4><p>Overwork is a significant predictor of retention, according to the CUPA-HR research. \u201cWe found out that half of higher ed employees work additional hours regularly beyond what&#8217;s expected of full-time employees. Along with that, employees are absorbing additional responsibilities and demands of staff who have already left. So high turnover in and of itself is producing the burnout that is leading to reduced job satisfaction and a higher likelihood of leaving,\u201d said Bischel.<\/p><p>CUPA-HR found the strain is particularly evident among supervisors, who were far more likely to work additional hours, which can lead to burnout and a toxic trickle-down effect, panelists said.\u00a0<\/p><p>To combat this trend, Crace said one of the most popular seminars for supervisors on his campus is focused on flourishing despite a societal norm of chronic too muchness. \u201cWe are trying to address policies that enable a stress glorification culture, policies that can chip away and cause strain rather than a flourishing culture.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e488869 ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"e488869\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-93f1deb elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"93f1deb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">\u201cOur students can\u2019t be fully well unless their faculty and staff are well.\u201d<\/span><\/h3>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-b71b97a elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"b71b97a\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-6a180cd ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"6a180cd\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-88917b6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"88917b6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-26355\" src=\"https:\/\/timelycare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/william-and-mary-logo-circle-150x150-1.png\" alt=\"William &amp; Mary\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" \/>R.

Hobdy said office workers wanted the flexibility that wasn\u2019t in her college\u2019s existing policy. \u201cWe started to notice detachment from the college and detachment from their work. So they automatically wanted to start looking for other jobs.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cInitially, it was \u2018everyone needs to return to work five days a week\u2019. And we started to develop programming and policies to support work from home to bring more balance so that employees felt heard, but it actually was an incentive for them to want to stay.\u201d<\/p><p>The CUPA-HR employee retention survey showed two-thirds of employees say their tasks can be done at home. Yet two-thirds of employees are forced to work all or most of their time on campus. \u201cSo that is a mismatch, a misalignment that we show in that data to be a strong predictor of whether an employee looks for other employment,\u201d said Bichsel.<\/p><p>\u201cWe used to rely on that student-centered mission to keep people in employment in higher ed. That is no longer strong enough. We need to be offering these same opportunities that the corporate world is offering if we want to retain our most talented employees,\u201d Bichsel

sense of belonging, and opportunities for development and advancement are among the \u201clow-hanging fruit\u201d to address the retention crisis in higher education, according to Bichel. \u201cIf you&#8217;re going to prioritize anything in the space, attend to those basic job satisfaction tenets first.\u201d<\/p><p>Hodby adds, faculty and staff wellness initiatives must be more than a one-and-done exercise. \u201cThe one thing I just can&#8217;t stress enough is the collaboration across the campus with leadership, faculty and staff, and really looking at your wellness efforts on a cyclical basis. Don&#8217;t allow it to grow stale.\u201d<\/p><p>Crace emphasized that faculty and staff wellness doesn\u2019t happen with a one-size-fits-all solution, but instead requires a comprehensive approach and continuous communication. Extending TimelyCare access to 24\/7 health and wellness support to faculty and staff is one part of the strategy at William &amp; Mary. \u201cWe have to be courageous and step into this right thing of really looking at community wellness. And even though it&#8217;s hard, the hardness is really finding what works for every individual,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd we have to constantly dose this information over and over again through multiple portals of communication.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-2954251 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"2954251\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-043f29b ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"043f29b\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b93d572 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"b93d572\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<script src=\"https:\/\/fast.wistia.com\/embed\/medias\/xfkxamtmhl.jsonp\" async><\/script><script src=\"https:\/\/fast.wistia.com\/assets\/external\/E-v1.js\" async><\/script><div class=\"wistia_responsive_padding\" style=\"padding:56.25% 0 0 0;position:relative;\"><div class=\"wistia_responsive_wrapper\" style=\"height:100%;left:0;position:absolute;top:0;width:100%;\"><div class=\"wistia_embed wistia_async_xfkxamtmhl seo=true videoFoam=true\" style=\"height:100%;position:relative;width:100%\"><div class=\"wistia_swatch\" style=\"height:100%;left:0;opacity:0;overflow:hidden;position:absolute;top:0;transition:opacity 200ms;width:100%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/fast.wistia.com\/embed\/medias\/xfkxamtmhl\/swatch\" style=\"filter:blur(5px);height:100%;object-fit:contain;width:100%;\" alt=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\" onload=\"this.parentNode.style.opacity=1;\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-5132eed elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"5132eed\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-fa84337 ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"fa84337\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bebc879 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"bebc879\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Three out of four faculty and staff say more mental health support would improve their job satisfaction.
