JAMPRO President Diane Edwards has questioned claims of a high turnover rate in the industry.

“High is a relative term … so I would challenge you on a perception that turnover is high. High relative to what?” she asked in an interview with The Gleaner.

In the Philippines, she said the attrition rate has come down from 33 per cent in 2011 to around 20 per cent in 2015.
