What is Outplacement Support?

Why is Outplacement Support important?

Organizations will be keen to maintain their employer brand and this increases the chances of employees parting amicably with the organization helping their external perception. Past employees will be more likely to recommend you to others and it shows that you care about your employees. During change in your business employees may be worried, particularly in periods of redundancy and studies have shown that employee engagement decreases even with small downsizing, outplacement support can prevent this as employees will be more confident that they are able to find another job even after redundancy. If employees have outplacement support after they are made redundant, they are more likely to be focussed on the next stage of their career rather than feeling the need for legal proceedings.

With us at your side, we can help you to help your employees make their next step, whilst also safeguarding the company reputation and employer branding for future generations of talent.
