Saving money doesn’t mean cutting corners. In fact, sometimes the opposite rule applies.
Spending a little extra time during the recruiting and hiring process can result in incredible
savings and improved productivity.

Hiring the right employee costs money...hiring the wrong employee costs a lot more. With
a national turnover rate of 20% per year across North America we know that the equine
industry is much higher! Being ahead of the curve and equipped with tools and practices
will help you reduce your turnover and increase the performance of the employees who
are essential to making your operation a success.

This hands on presentation is designed to:
1. Help you understand and calculate the costs of hiring and retaining employees
2. Show you what you can do to reduce your risk of hiring the wrong employee
3. Connect your operation’s success to the performance of your employees
4. Discuss Workers Compensation
5. Discuss the difference between contract & full time employees
