Why do patterns of labor turnover vary so much between industries?

Levels of labor turnover change across industries. Higher levels of labor turnover are found typically in call centers, leisure and catering, hotels, and retail and other private sector services categories which are on the lower pay scale. The levels of labor turnover also vary between regions. The patterns of labor turnover vary between industries because of long-term illness, death, maternity and retirement issues, not suitable for the job, variations in strategy, variations in capacity, and seasonal variations in demand.
