What this means
Average job tenure in accommodation and food services in Manitoba came to 48.2 months in 2025, according to Statistics Canada. The number summarizes an entire provincial industry population; it is not a scorecard for how any one employer retains staff. Compare it with your own tenure records and what departing employees tell you on the way out. The Work Institute estimates turnover costs run from 33% up to 200% of a departing employee's salary, which is why that internal comparison matters more than the benchmark itself.
