How Fork helps you keep your team

Retention isn't about one big gesture — it's about consistently doing the small things right. Fork builds them into your daily workflow.

Employee recognition

Let managers and peers send public recognition for great work. Celebrate milestones, work anniversaries, and performance — visible to the entire team.

Pulse surveys

Run quick anonymous surveys to measure morale, satisfaction, and sentiment. Spot issues early and track trends over time — before people start looking for other jobs.

Training courses & library

Create training courses with videos, quizzes, and step-by-step guides. Track completion rates and ensure every new hire gets a consistent learning experience.

Fair and flexible scheduling

Give employees input on their availability. Let them swap shifts with approval. Fair scheduling is one of the top factors in retention for hourly workers.

Team updates & announcements

Keep everyone informed with company-wide or location-specific updates. Employees who feel connected to their organization are 3× more likely to stay.

Structured onboarding

Guide new hires through their first days with automated onboarding checklists, required documents, and training material — so they feel supported from day one.

The true cost of turnover

Every departure costs more than you think — recruiting fees, interviews, training, lost productivity, and the morale hit to everyone left behind.

Hourly team member
$4,700
2-3 weeks to hire + 4-6 weeks to train
Shift supervisor
$7,500
Higher recruiting costs + institutional knowledge loss
General manager
$15,000+
Months to fill, significant revenue impact during gap
For a 30-person team with 50% annual turnover (industry average)
$70,500+ lost per year to turnover
