Chamber report shows turnover is over 3 times higher than Sanderson reported! According the the study commissioned by the Chamber/Alliance the turnover rate at Sanderson Farms Kinston facility is 125%. Pic Billingsley stood on stage at the Crown Coliseum looked us in the eye and told us the turnover in Kinston was 40%. Direct quote from the report (page 7, paragraph 1): Sanderson Farms is aware of such instability of the workforce. A good measure of stability for the plant workforce is the turnover rate for plant employees. In a 2005 report the Government Accountability Office said that determining an average turnover rate for the poultry industry was difficulty (-sp) but that plants having a turnover rate of over 100 percent were common. One plant they looked at had a turnover rate of over 200 percent in one year. Sanderson Farms has some inconsistency on this front, but in the two plants analyzed for this report Sanderson Farms plants have been more stable than these commonly seen numbers. The Moultrie plant had strong worker retention last year with a turnover rate of only 52%. The Kinston plant has not done as well, but has maintained the commonly reported industry trend, with a turnover of 125% last year.
