Comparison of Machine Learning Techniques to Predict the Attrition Rate of the Employees

In most of the organizations, Employee Attrition has been one of the greatest concerns in today's world. The reason behind this can be due to personal or company related issues such as long- distance travelling, no work life balance, less salary hike, no job satisfaction etc. According to a study done by Businessdictonary, employee attrition results from resigning from their post, retirement, illness, or demise. Considering these issues, the project aims to find the employees who are most likely to attrite from the organization using pre-processing techniques such as exploratory data Analysis (EDA), feature selection techniques and utilizing various machine learning techniques such as Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Random Forest. According to which several programs can be incorporated by the organizations to minimize the attrition rate and also help in building and maintaining a robust relationship between the employees and the organization.
