Having observation of the increasing rate of employee termination rate of the organization the researcher discovered the current activity of employee acquisition and retention practice as the company is under risk if the tendency of employee termination is continues with the current movement. To address this study descriptive analysis method was employed and also quantitative and qualitative approaches were used. To gather data for the study questionnaire and interview have been used. The researcher used Census method as the population size is limited and manageable then questionnaires were administered to the current staffs 80 and some terminated staffs 8 with the total population of 88. A purposive sampling was used for an interview from each department representatives and management staffs. Data obtained through questionnaire has been analyzed by using descriptive statistics (percentage, mean and standard deviation) supported by SPSS version 25 software. Hopefully the study is useful for the area of Aviation industry especially private airlines as it can be a base for future study. Finally the result is collected from 85 respondents; the study found that more of the recruitment practices are comfortable. However more of the practices with relation to attraction and retention of employees are ineffective so that the reason for high employee’s turnover is clearly seen from the data results. The study recommends acquiring talented employees without effective retention mechanisms brings nothing success for the company stability and development. Thus, the management should establish effective policy and strategies for employee retention and acquisition practices, improve benefits, compensation, and incentive packages, make fair and equitable annual salary increment, reward and recognition should be based on performance evaluation management system and apply fair carrier and development opportunities equally for all employees.
