turnover
In a corporate sense, this word carries a dual energy. When applied to personnel, it often signals instability or dissatisfaction, evoking a sense of a revolving door where talent exits as quickly as it enters. When applied to finance, it represents the heartbeat of a business, signaling the volume of activity and cash flow. The pastry meaning is entirely distinct, shifting from a systemic process to a tangible, folded object, where the name describes the physical folding of the dough over the filling.
Countable when referring to a specific pastry or a single instance of rotating something. Uncountable when referring to the general rate of employee replacement or the total financial volume of a business.
