What is outplacement?
Outplacement is offered by companies that are downsizing in an effort to help transitioning employees.
It is an employee benefit provided to workers who have recently been laid off from their jobs and seek assistance to transition back into the workforce. Services can include: training guides, assessments, career counseling, resume advice, access to job listings and interview coaching. A specialized career coach will offer your ex-employees counseling and advising sessions to help them encounter new job opportunities.
What are the benefits?
Reputation is everything. This is true now more than ever. Outplacement is viewed as a responsible action and being a company regarded for taking care of their employees at all stages can mitigate feelings not only between the company and former employees, but also between the company and its remaining employees. The risk of litigation decreases with outplacement services too, which saves time and money. For further details, please contact us.
