Human Resources: National Coney Island Restaurant Chain Cuts Employee Turnover 28%

Troy, Mich. – Mar. 13, 2008 – National Coney Island, a 20-unit fast casual restaurant operator with approximately 1,000 employees, successfully cut employee turnover 28% by using the JobApp Network restaurant hiring solution. This reduction in turnover has resulted in annual savings of approximately $20,000 per restaurant, according to the data released by the restaurant chain last week.

National Coney Island implemented the JobApp Network restaurant hiring solution in February 2007, one year ago. Within 45 days of implementing the solution, the restaurant chain was able to fully staff all of its restaurants, an achievement that had not been attained in the prior 20 years.

“We knew that the solution would improve the speed and quality of hire and cut the time managers spent with unqualified applicants. We also expected turnover to be reduced; however, we never expected that turnover would decline by 28 percent in just 12 months on the JobApp solution. Considering that our fully loaded cost to recruit, hire, train and develop an employee is well over $1,500, the JobApp Network solution has saved our company $420,000 annually across our 20 restaurant locations on turnover alone,” said Tom Giftos, President of National Coney Island.
