From the Paper:

"During the 1990s, job seekers had a dizzying array of choices when they searched for work. It was a difficult task for employers to keep employees. Losing employees always meant losing knowledge, capital, skills, and experience (Watson, 2000). Losing knowledge was a major concern to organizations. If an organization lost an employee with a great amount of knowledge, it essentially lost revenue that the employee would have generated. If an employer lost an employee with a great amount of experience, it would take lots of time and money to retrain a new employee for positive production. Experience is an intangible that is relied up heavily. Every worker carries with him or her at least three basic types of experience. Every worker possesses a certain amount of industry, company, and position specific experience."
