Estimated Turnover = 75

Estimated turnover is the percentage of security guards who leave your company in a year. This includes people who quit, get fired, or don’t show up.

High turnover means more hiring, training, and overtime costs. If too many guards leave, you spend more money replacing them and risk staff shortages. Factoring turnover into your costs helps you price services correctly.

Security guard turnover is high, usually 50% to 100% per year.

If it is a lower-paying position turnover could be as high as 100%. If it is a supervisory position or has a higher pay rate, then turnover may be lower.

If you’re unsure, use 75% as a safe estimate (meaning you replace 3 out of 4 guards each year).
