India BPO industry suffers 55% attrition

NEW DELHI, April 14, 2011 (AFP) - The attrition rate in India's business process outsourcing sector jumped to 55 percent from a year earlier, dealing a potentially fatal blow to the flagship industry, a study said on Thursday.

But India continues to lead the overall global outsourcing market, increasing its share to 55 percent in 2010, up from 51 percent the previous year. The study released by the Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (Assocham) blamed the high turnover rate on bad working hours and a perceived lack of long-term career growth.

Between December 2010 and April 2011, the attrition rate in the BPO industry increased to 55 percent from 40 percent during the same period a year earlier, Assocham said.

The sector is also facing serious challenges such as a shortage of skilled workers, the study said.
