I agree. For sure we see the same thing in our sector.
I think what also contributes to that attrition are the conditions that in our case, in the mining sector, are specific to our industry, things like the rural and remote nature of the industry. You can do that for a few years if you want and you can go to live in Yellowknife, but eventually people tend to migrate to where they are from. Or things like a fly-in/fly-out schedule in which you work for two weeks and have two weeks off are doable for a period of time but not for a number of years, and eventually that takes its toll. We see much higher levels of turnover for males and females with those schedules, but you can't get around that.
It's about providing as much accurate information as we can about job requirements from the get-go so the individual doesn't necessarily go through all the training, get the job, do it for a year, and then leave. If that happens, we're not helping that individual or the sector.
