Outplacement or career transition service assists responsible corporations in supporting their exiting employees to reorient themselves to the job market and find new employment in other organisations. The implementation of a carefully structured support service by experienced professionals is essential to maintain an organisation’s reputation as a considerate employer of choice and to reduce potential litigation while maintaining a good relationship with former employees. International best practices data has shown that organizations providing outplacement services report encouraging results including employee engagement, increased productivity and better retention.
Leaving an organisation is often an emotional experience for both employees and employers. At this time of possible vulnerability, it is a dire need for the employees to come up with a well thought out plan for the next step in their career. While the reasons for an exit may be personal, strategic or performance related, a compassionate organisation invests in ensuring a smooth and seamless transition of their employees in other jobs.
