Fremont’s Workforce is Capable and Loyal, Generation After Generation

Companies like Jayhawk Boxes have spent decades growing in Fremont, in part, due to a workforce who is capable and loyal. Fremont’s workforce has been a critical factor that has enabled Jayhawk Boxes to grow. Their capabilities and loyalty have been something the company could depend on. Being located in a smaller community has had additional benefits as well. For example, they are one of many Fremont companies that has hired multiple generations of the same family to work for them. Now that’s loyalty. 

Why does workforce loyalty matter?

Without loyalty, workers are more likely to take their training and leave the company for another job opportunity. In their Human Capital Benchmarking Report, the Society of Human Resource Management estimated that around 19% of the workforce leaves their current employer every year.  Furthermore, they estimate that the average cost-per-hire to fill a position is $4,129. That’s expensive. 

Not only does it cost to replace an employee, there is a loss of productivity to consider. Constant turnover makes it difficult to fulfill orders, meet client expectations, deliver as promised, or grow. Companies who cannot retain employees will be in a constant state of flux that is not good for company morale, and certainly not good for the bottom line. 

Fremont’s loyal workforce could be the answer. 

Fremont’s capable and loyal workforce stands out. 

In Fremont, businesses are thought of as part of the community. This is a place where everyone is growing together, so when someone takes a job with a local company, they are participating in the success of that company and the future success of the community.
