Teachers are a pretty decent place to look. The NCTAF says that about 50% of teacher turn over in the first 5 years, but the total turn over is only 16.8%. So once you get past that first 5 years the turnout must get really low to balance out the stats. Here’s an article that talks about public school vs charter school turnover http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2011/07/los-angeles-charter-schools-have-high-teacher-turnover.html

OK. A math lesson here: if you have 13% of people who turn over year over year. In 5 years, you will have 1-(1-13%)^5=50% of the 1st year teacher left the position (assume each year, new teacher and old teacher has the same turn over ratio).
