OSCPA's December Lunch + Learn: The True Cost of Turnover - VIRTUAL
1.00 Credits
Member Price $0
Non-Member Price $40
Overview
Join the OSCPA for our monthly Lunch + Learn event over topics important to Oklahoma CPAs.
Turnover is one of the most underestimated financial liabilities in any organization. While CPAs and CFOs can quantify operational and tax exposures, the cost of talent flight often escapes traditional accounting models. From recruiting expenses and payroll burden to productivity decay, severance, and valuation compression, turnover erodes enterprise value silently and systemically.
This session reframes attrition as a measurable, predictable financial risk-and demonstrates how disciplined human-capital analytics can become a profit lever. Attendees will also gain insight into how One Big Beautiful Bill and the evolving human-capital landscape are reshaping workforce cost structures, compliance, and talent economics. As organizations navigate new expectations around transparency, pay equity, and predictive HR data, financial leaders must evolve from reactive cost managers to proactive human-capital strategists.
