Outplacement Services

From time to time circumstances dictate that costs must be reduced.  In times when 70% to 80% of costs are wages, it is inevitable that this will mean redundancies. 

Alongside this unpalatable reality, is an ever increasing body of employment legislation which can leave the unwary exposed to claims of unfairness or incorrect treatment when staff leave.  Particularly if there is the possibility of ill feeling, distress or financial hardship arising from the departure. 

One of the best ways to avoid these problems and to make a positive contribution to former employees future prospects is to provide redundant staff with a practical way of finding new jobs via outplacement services. 

As veterans of the recession of 1990-94 we are well equipped to provide   these services to both employer and employees.  For employers, we can provide advice and assistance in dealing with redundancy programmes, particularly with regard to how the process is handled.  We will meet with employers to discuss their plans, if required. For employees, we can work with the individuals to develop the most effective way back into the workforce. 

We provide a one to one employee consultation, including an industry overview, an assessment of the individuals CV, advice on making applications (including online), how to navigate the interview process, and how to handle recruitment agencies. This can be held either at the employers premises or at our Central London offices.

We will then remain available to that individual for as long as he or she needs the service.
