510 TSA Officers Quit During Shutdown — 5 Retention Lessons for Every Employer

Introduction

The TSA crisis is a case study in what happens when the most basic element of the employment relationship — paying people for their work — breaks down. 510 dedicated professionals walked away from careers they loved because their employer failed them. The 20 airports with private contractors proved the fix is simple: pay your people, keep your people.
