Group Outplacement

To undertake a large downsizing or plant closure demands sensitivity and thorough planning in advance to ensure a win- win outcome for the organisation and the people impacted. We have been retained by clients on large projects to ensure people leave feeling well treated and prepared for life after job loss.  Large scale redundancies will bring about anger, tension, and impact staff morale. We liaise with each site and deliver the most appropriate solution dependant on the time scale and volume involved.  We have various options depending on the level of support required including;

Career Direction Workshops - to help identify new jobs, alternative career choices and/or retraining

Self-Marketing Workshops - to help create new CV’s, Job Search techniques and Interview Skills

Start Your Own Business Workshops - to help create new business ideas and develop plans

One to One Career and Financial Coaching - to compliment these group workshop interventions.

Onsite Career Centres - cost effective on site resources for high volume downsizing.

Voluntary Redundancy Decisions - the downsizing in the public sector poses different challenges as making people compulsory redundant is not an option. Many who have seen their job as one for life are fearful when the offer of a Voluntary redundancy package is on offer. They are fearful because they do not have enough facts to make their decision. Instead they are often left to rely on many different amateur opinions. Our response has been to create a comprehensive career and financial awareness programme to help organisations help their people separate fact from opinion and make the right decision for them and their families.

Career and Financial Awareness programme - to help identify the right career and financial decision to make at a time when voluntary redundancy packages are on offer.
