G8 Education, Australia's largest early childhood education and care provider listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), says staff retention across its national network has climbed above 80 per cent – up from an estimated 70 per cent three years ago – even as the company works through a major restructure of its centre portfolio.
Stewart Silk, chief people officer at G8 Education, told HRD the improvement follows a deliberate, multi-year push on organisational purpose, values and workforce investment, delivered against a backdrop of tightening compliance requirements and cost-of-living pressure on families using early learning services.
