Personnel changes are part of the modern working world. Successful companies not only have to fill new positions, but also manage employee separations. Recruitment is often prioritized, while the separation process is neglected. Yet there are a number of clearly tangible reasons why this must also be part of the corporate strategy and should be well planned.
With outplacement support, the employer offers employees affected by redundancy support from external, neutral experts in dealing with the separation situation, professional reorientation and the search for new employment.
Numerous sources prove that outplacement has real business benefits and has a positive impact on company performance. We would like to share our experience with you:
Social responsibility in the public eye
If a company offers support during the separation phase, this demonstrates social responsibility as an employer. Remaining employees, customers and other interest groups recognize that terminations are handled fairly and respectfully and that support is provided for professional reorientation.
Reduction of costs
Negative emotions in the event of redundancy can be mitigated by early outplacement support and unemployment can often be prevented. This saves costs for the employer, shortens the remaining terms of existing employment contracts and prevents costly legal disputes. An amicable separation facilitates the change process in the company.
Employee motivation and retention
The remaining employees keep a close eye on how colleagues are treated in separation situations. Negative experiences have a negative impact on their motivation and performance and can lead to resignations, which the company would like to avoid.
Positive corporate image
Dealing with separation situations influences employer reputation. In networked times, opinions spread quickly, both positively and negatively. Outplacement support improves your image as an employer, an important factor in the competition for skilled workers.
In practice, we see time and again that early and professional planning of the separation process is essential. Not all those affected have the same needs and the support measures should be just as individual, i.e. tailor-made!
With our team of experts, we can support you throughout the entire reorganization process. We help you to shape your separation process in a fair, sustainable and goal-oriented manner.
