turnover
Folded fruit pastry
Turnover is the rate at which things cycle through—employees leaving and being replaced, inventory selling and restocking, or money flowing through a business.
A high turnover rate at a company means staff don't stay long.
In sports, a turnover is losing possession to the opponent.
A turnover is also a pastry made by folding dough over a filling: apple turnover.
