Finding good staff is hard.
But keeping them — that’s the real challenge.
Whether it’s a trusted househelp, a reliable shopkeeper, or a productive office assistant, too many Kenyan employers lose good workers because of poor follow-up or avoidable mistakes.
Let’s talk about how to keep your best people.
😓 Why Good Staff Leave
- They feel unappreciated
- Lack of structure or clear communication
- Delayed or inconsistent pay
- No off days or break time
- Poor conflict handling or overworking
And once they leave? You’re back to square one — stressed and short-handed.
How to Retain Good Staff in Homes and Businesses
1. Start with a Solid Contract
Clarity builds trust. Use contracts to define duties, hours, pay, and off days.
2. Pay on Time
Even if it’s a small salary, consistency builds loyalty.
3. Respect Their Off Time
Avoid calling them during off-days unless urgent — people need rest.
4. Offer Feedback & Appreciation
Don’t just correct mistakes. A “thank you” or “good job” goes far.
5. Solve Conflict Calmly
Don’t shout. Don’t threaten. Use facts, patience, and structured guidance.
