Employee retention is a critical component in managing human resource flow. In this era of unpredictable market and organizational changes, organizations must create an environment where today's top talent can thrive. Individuals once being trained have a tendency to move to other organisations for better prospects. Lucrative salary, comfortable timings, better ambience, growth prospects are some of the factors which prompt an employee to look for a change. Whenever a talented employee expresses his willingness to move on, it becomes the responsibility of the management and the human resource team to intervene immediately and find out the exact reasons leading to the decision. The retention of human resources has been shown to be momentous to the development and the accomplishment of the organization's goals and objectives.
Using a sample of 250 bank professionals this study attempts to explore the main factors and also the retention approaches that may be used to keep the employees in private sector banks. 250 surveys distributed to bank workforce and the survey questions were designed to determine major factors specially organization culture and benefits responsible for retention and Present Retention Strategies.

In today’s aggressive business environment, the challenge of sustaining competitive advantage pre-occupies the minds of most business and government leaders. It has become common practice that internet executives are spending far more time on recruiting than they ever did in the old economy, and they worry far more about how to keep the talent once won. The intensity of this concern has become even greater since April, 2000, when the deluge of investment funding dried to a trickle. E managers are now painfully aware that they must be able to motivate people to come, to stay and to make great contributions. The main objective of this paper is to explore the role of social networking sites e.g. face book, linked. In etc. on employee performance which includes skills, productivity and knowledge of employees and influence of social media on performance of generation Y. Using a sample of 125 professionals this study attempts to review and analyze the effect of rising use of social Networking sites on employee’s performance i.e. skills, knowledge, productivity and its influence on retention of Generation Y. The result of the study shows that the Results show that there is a positive correlation between all the parameters of employees’ performance i.e. skills of employees, their productivity and knowledge.
