One way to keep productivity high and turnover low is by offering retention bonuses. Unlike performance-based bonuses, retention bonuses entice your most experienced and sought-after employees to remain at your company, regardless of performance.

Often this is done by closing a scheme to future accrual, so members no longer earn any further benefits in it. The court said the BBC could not do this.
