These days redundancy is sadly just another of those inevitable lifetime events. Those who receive Outplacement support find new employment more quickly than those who don't, and often make very positive life changing decisions as they are broken out of their familiar box and start to understand what they are selling in terms of skills and capabilities, know what work they want to do, have a marketing brochure that represents them well, understand how the job market works, and gain the knowledge to help them navigate the selection process.
For those providing Outplacement support there are various benefits:
Employees who are offered Outplacement support from their employer during redundancy are less likely to harbour negative feelings towards their employer and are less likely to re-act against the decision.
The way that a company conducts itself during times of redundancy will be noticed by clients, shareholders and the public. Providing support to staff helps a company to maintain a good employer brand within the industry and locality.
The morale of remaining employees will undoubtedly be affected by the way in which the redundancy process is handled. The employees that remain will be aware of how the redundancies were handled and a well managed process can support retention and productivity.
Providing Outplacement significantly reduces the level of stress experienced by managers responsible for implementing redundancy decisions
People who receive Outplacement support find new employment quicker and more easily than those who do not.
