Hello!
I am trying to calculate attrition. It is a simple formula: I need to calculate the sum of people who left company and divide it by the average number of employees during this time.
I did it, but I am not so sure what to do if e.g. in one division there were no employees during first months.
So now I am calculating attrition for the whole 2022 year and I noticed one division in which from January to August there were no employees.
The average therefore is very low and even one person who left the company gives weird results.
What I am asking is what would you do? Would you exclude the months where there were no employees from calculating the average?
