The Employee Life Cycle Model is a comprehensive framework used to guide HR professionals in managing the recruitment, hiring, development and retention of personnel. It is based on the idea that an employee’s experience throughout their tenure is shaped by the opportunities and challenges they face at each stage of the cycle. By mapping out these stages, HR professionals can more effectively identify gaps, anticipate issues and make better decisions to improve employee engagement, satisfaction and performance. Ultimately, the goal of the model is to create a positive work environment that encourages growth and facilitates productivity.
