In order to gather more insights on the talent crunch, the undertaken study was conducted on technical and non technical jobs in manufacturing sector in Delhi NCR.

A set of questions were prepared and send to 120 employee but only 75 responded. The study shows a strong relationship between type of job and factors of attrition. Chi-square test clearly states strong relationship among two. Thus any change in one will affect the other also.
