SMI is providing its employees with free matrimonial services along with a bonus for those who get married. The aim is to reduce turnover in a sector that has particularly high attrition rates. The company is trying to retain talent and negate the desire to quit the company in order to seek a love match in a larger city. This novel approach seems to be working. SMI employs roughly 750 and yet boasts an attrition rate of only about 10%. “They treat me like a brother and several of them are from villages, with either aged parents or lacking a proper outlook of the world and unable to find the right match,” says M P Selvaganesh, SMI founder and CEO, in a The Times of India article.

Weddings are the best get togethers, the entire team hires vans and attends,” the CEO continued in the English language daily publication. Need more info ?
