Final answer:

Discussing only the best parts of the job and separating employees to avoid talking about those who left are actions that are not supported by evidence when managers deal with turnover.

Step-by-step explanation:

The actions that are not supported by evidence when managers are confronted with turnover are:

  1. When talking with job applicants, discuss only the best parts of the job. This is not supported by evidence because it may result in false expectations and later lead to dissatisfaction for the new employees.
  2. Separate employees so that they don’t talk about the people who have left the company. This is not supported by evidence because open communication and transparency are important for employee morale and engagement.
