Benefits for the organization
Career transition services are beneficial for both the organization and the individual.
Strengthened reputation
Simply put, offering career transition or outplacement services provide a concrete example of your organization’s strong desire to “do the right thing”. Through the offering of transition services, you are solidifying your organization’s reputation as a responsible corporate citizen.
Positioned for success
Outplacement or transition services, as part of an effective change management strategy, position your organization for success in a number of ways, such as:
- Providing support to human resources and line managers tasked with delivering the news
- Maintaining the morale of the remaining employees by supporting those leaving the organization
- Leaving a positive impression with exiting employees who may return at a later date
Legal proceedings
- Providing departing employees with transition services can avoid unnecessary, and often expensive, legal proceedings and costs. Participating in a transition program provide employees with a fair and dignified exit treatment
- Career transition services can also help avoid the negative press associated with legal proceedings
