4 Turnover Highlights In calendar year 2008 the number of employee separations for all reasons was 10.5% of the population of regular employees. Of this, voluntary resignations made up 5.2% and retirements accounted for 2%. The remaining 3.3% resulted from end of term appointments, layoff, termination, disability, or death. The rate of separations (10.5%) exceeded the rate of new hires and rehires (7.7%), indicating a reduction in the total number of regular employees. The number of separations due to position elimination/staff reduction grew from 12 in 2006, 11 in 2007 to 53 in 2008; reflecting downsizing due to the financial conditions. The relatively low rate of voluntary resignations indicates that UMS has overall strong retention. However, there are specific positions and locations where hiring and retention are problematic. The University of Maine has 45.1 % of the UMS employee population. They also had 45% of the separations from 2006 through Separation rates in 2008 vary from a high of 17.5% at the University of Maine at Machias to 5.5% at the University of Maine at Fort Kent % of separations are due to voluntary resignations.

5 Methodology This analysis includes only regular staff, and primary position records. No part time faculty are included due to the semester by semester nature of their employment. The analysis is viewed in calendar years. The population for each year is determined by averaging the number of staff active, on leave, or on leave with pay on the first day of the year and on the last day of the year. Resignations, voluntary retirements, and failure to return from leave are reasons considered voluntary separations. All other separation reasons are considered involuntary.
