challenge

With the entry of a higher-paying competitor into the market, a major semiconductor company began rapidly losing employees — to the point where even their production targets were in jeopardy. Compounding the challenge, COVID-19 restrictions remained in place, which compromised the client’s ability to onboard new hires quickly enough to offset attrition. Eager to find a solution, optimize their compensation rates and deliver on production goals, the client reached out to Randstad for support.
