Are you considering offering outplacement services and not sure about how it can help your impacted employees with their job search?
At Transition Solutions, we have been helping companies and individuals with workforce changes for 30 years.
Transitioning employees is never an easy proposition. Whether an economic downturn, business closing, a restructure, merger or acquisition, technological advancements or an individual employee event, these are all common occurrences that may prompt you to consider layoffs.
Balancing the business need, employee experience and your brand reputation is a critical consideration in today’s business landscape.
Per Eric Cormier, Manager, HR Services Boston for Insperity, “Offering outplacement services can take some of the sting out of the layoff process for both parties. For the employee, it helps make the transition more positive by shifting the focus to future opportunities. Meanwhile, as a business owner, knowing you’ve done your part to help an employee successfully move on may help ease your conscience as well.”
