How Outplacement supports more than the employee

When it comes to redundancy and those affected by it, people immediately think of the employees who have lost their jobs. What is often overlooked is the fact that the employers, too, can be deeply affected when having to face the task of losing employees and supporting those who remain.

Waddington Brown understands this, having had experience of working with both large and small employers supporting them through the transition process.

Advantages of Outplacement for employers
• Promotes external company image and brand: important for customers, suppliers and prospective future employees, as it shows your care for your employees and their future.
• Promotes internal company brand: retained employees see that their colleagues were valued and have been well treated.
• Ethical and committed organisation: demonstrates an organisation’s focus on ethics and commitment to employee welfare.
• Supports HR team in managing transition: takes undue pressure off the organisation’s HR team who gain peace of mind knowing redundant employees are being managed by employment coaching specialists.
• Offers assurance and guidance to the employee: working with an independent Outplacement provider displays the organisation’s commitment to fulfilling their corporate responsibility to exiting employees, making them feel supported and valued.
