Hospital (Private or Public) Designation and Salary Range

I hearsay some batches almost 60-70% left after 1-2 yrs. Those that stayed are either bonded or don't mind the stale environment.

"Overall, the attrition of AHPs in the public healthcare sector increased slightly from 8.9% in 2018 to 11.6% in 2022. "

Over 5 years isn't it more than 50%, or is my math wonky?

Yup , ur maths cmi.
Initially quoted was 60% - 70% after 1-2 years

Now quoted was 10% + per year which is 50-60% over 5 years.

I can't say much about other AHP but as an ex-pharmacist, looking at my batch mates, it is true that about half have left to join industry or other roles after 1-2 yrs. Those that stayed are either bonded, lazy to start searching or in the midst of finding jobs.

The pay is stagnant even with promotion. Coupled with working weekends it’s a surprise people stay so long.

Do most people leave after bond or stay?

Just my two cents:

Most wanted to leave but cannot due to bond. The penalty can quite substantial (im not sure of the amount) if you break the bond, especially so for a fresh graduate who may not have a lot of money to begin with.

Those that stayed past their 4-5 years bonds usually find that they are no longer competitive to jump to other areas or industries (unless you are jumping into sales which can be cut throat). So most unbonded peeps will jump while they are still young.
