Banking is one of the fastest-growing sectors because of its contribution to the economy, however, today employee retention is demurring for banks and they are striving to fulfil this challenge. It has been observed from the past few years that it is due to the lack of knowledge related to the proper implementation of HR practices in the commercial banks. The main purpose behind conducting the research is to understand the effect of compensation (C), working environment (WE), training and development (T&D), and performance appraisal (PA) on employee retention (ER). The study used convenience sampling with a sample size of 200 and data was collected from the employees of different commercial banks located in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. The empirical results showed that WE, PA, and COM have a significant positive relationship with the ER whereas T&A has the insignificant one.

Leadership is one of important aspects in any form of activity that involves people. Leadership may make employees either stay or leave the organisation hence it becomes one of factors that influence employee retention. Organisations spend and invest a lot in their employees and this starts from recruitment and selection, training and development, compensation and other Human Resource Management functions. This entails that letting an employee leave your organisation is a costly decision one can ever make. Various studies done in Tanzania have been investigating employee retention by associating it with other factors such as salaries, working hours, training and development, working environment and promotion among others. This study examined the link between leadership and employee retention. The study used Akiba Commercial Bank (Buguruni Branch) and Tanzania Postal Bank (Morogoro Branch) as the study cases and data were collected using questionnaires. Linear regression analysis was employed to examine the relationship between the variables. It was found that there is significant linear relationship between leadership and employee retention in Tanzania commercial banks. The study recommends provision of training to bank managers and supervisors on leadership skills since managing and leading go hand in hand. It further reminds managers and supervisors to seek for feedback from their subordinates on how they perceive leadership styles used in respective banks and make improvements before the employees decide to leave.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of rewards systems and training and development on employee retention, mediated by the effects of job satisfaction, in Yemeni commercial banks. The study used cross-sectional data collection methods. Data was collected from the headquarters of 15 commercial banks. A set of questionnaires using a 5-point Likert scale was distributed to employees; the data was analyzed using the Structured Equation Model (SEM) by IBM SPSS AMOS 25.0. The results indicated that both the rewards system and training and development significantly affect job satisfaction, while job satisfaction has a significant positive effect on employee retention. Training and development themselves have no statistically significant effect on employee retention. The results showed that job satisfaction plays a mediating role because the indirect effect is significant. The mediation is complete because the direct impact is not significant. The result indicates that job satisfaction is an important variable that links the reward system and training and development to employee retention in Yemeni banks. This study is expected to make significant theoretical, practical, and methodological contributions to this field of research due to the development of a model of the effects of the reward system and training and development on employee retention through job satisfaction.
