Outplacement Service
A good beginning starts with a good ending
• What is Outplacement?
Outplacement is a career transition service that employers provide to
displaced employees during times of restructuring. This service enables
former employees to move forward positively in their career on good terms
with the company they are leaving.
How do we make this difficult transitional process easier for staff and
beneficial to the company? We do this by providing a compassionate, supportive
and practical career transition service. The guidance and practical advice
of an effective outplacement service demonstrates the respect of an employer
towards employee as their working relationship draws to a close. It also
provides the company a unique opportunity to strengthen its core values
and its commitment to remaining employees
