Abstract

Employee retention is a major challenge for organizations in the digital era because high turnover impacts productivity, operational costs, and organizational performance. This study proposes a Hybrid Deep Learning model based on XGBoost and Deep Neural Network (DNN) to predict employee retention using the HR_comma_sep dataset. This approach combines tree-based machine learning and deep learning to capture nonlinear relationships and complex decision patterns. Data preprocessing is performed through feature scaling and categorical encoding before model training. The hybrid architecture is built by integrating the probability outputs of XGBoost and DNN in the meta-classification layer. Evaluation using Accuracy, Precision, Recall, F1-Score, and AUC-ROC shows that the hybrid model has better prediction and generalization performance than conventional methods. SHAP Explainability is used to identify the main factors influencing turnover, namely job satisfaction, average monthly working hours, and length of service. This model can help organizations develop proactive HR management strategies.
