Outplacement Support

Empowering Employee Transitions


Whether due to market downturns, changes in ownership, shifts in services, or cost-cutting measures, the process of staff reduction can be challenging for both the affected employees and the company as a whole. Mishandling this process can lead to detrimental effects on the organization.

Some of the potential consequences of not providing appropriate support include:


  • Damage to the company's public image and reputation through negative PR or disgruntled employees speaking ill of the organization due to perceived mistreatment or inadequate support.
  • Harm to the company's reputation among industry peers, as former employees are unlikely to recommend the organization as an employer of choice if they feel dissatisfied.
  • Decreased productivity among remaining staff members who may experience job security concerns and anxieties.
  • Potential legal repercussions if proper redundancy procedures are not followed.

Providing Gather outplacement support will help by:


  • Empowering individuals with the necessary tools and assistance to transition back into employment successfully and swiftly.
  • Reducing and managing the stress and uncertainty associated with redundancy, supporting employees through the emotional and practical aspects of the job search process.
  • Assisting employees in gaining a clear understanding of their skills, abilities, career aspirations, and personal goals.
  • Equipping them with lifelong skills in job seeking, networking, interviewing, and negotiation, enhancing their future employability.
  • Recognizing and appreciating the contributions of outgoing staff, which demonstrates care and empathy to the remaining workforce.
  • Presenting your company in a positive light, showcasing your commitment to supporting employees during challenging times.
  • Fostering a positive and productive working environment for remaining staff members, promoting morale and engagement.
  • By offering outplacement support, you prioritize the well-being of your employees and mitigate potential negative outcomes, positioning your organization as compassionate, responsible, and dedicated to the success and happiness of its workforce.
