Employers will go to great lengths to attract staff and treat them well on the way in BUT when things are not going so good do employers treat their staff as well on the way out. Redundancy is a big topic in the Irish economy as is the subject of Outplacement Services.
What are Outplacement Services?
Basically outplacement is about providing support to staff through the difficult period of redundancy. Most emphasis will be on the employees displaced or losing their jobs with career coaching and other services.
How can Outplacement Services help your company?
Outplacement services send out the right message to staff, investors and the general public. It shows that you care. Many organisations introduce support because they care BUT I am sure others want to be seen to care. To be honest the latter is ok because employees are getting much needed support. Redundancy is a difficult time with staff emotions running high and support can help reduced anger and resentment. Helping staff losing their jobs will send out the right message to the staff remaining. This will reduce staff exiting the company and will get operations and productivity back in swing quicker.
How much will Outplacement Services cost?
Not as much as you think. Most providers will build a program for you within your budget. If you are interested and want a quote why not enquire now.
