Separation culture is an important part of the corporate culture

More important than ever in times of labor shortages

Personnel change processes are an everyday part of a constantly changing working world. Companies that want to be successful today must master this challenging task in the competition for the best talent. This includes not only filling new positions, but also separating employees. We see time and again that companies invest a lot in recruitment but often neglect the separation process. There are a number of clearly tangible reasons why this must also be part of the corporate strategy and should be well planned.

A good separation culture requires the same prerequisites as a good corporate culture:

open and early communication, transparency and honesty, fairness, respect, appreciation and sensitivity.
A lack of a culture of separation hurts those who leave, unsettles those who stay and lowers their morale. It encourages voluntary departures of motivated employees, leads to a loss of trust in management, lowers productivity and leads to long-lasting innovation bottlenecks in the company

A well thought-out, defined and practiced separation culture is essential for every company and should be part of the corporate culture.

We are happy to share our thoughts in more detail on the topic of separation culture and management in an article by Michael Hasler, published in the WEKA "Der HR Profi" newsletter in May 2022.
