News, Tips, and Best Practices

Consider offering outplacement as part of a comprehensive severance package strategy.

Why is Outplacement Important?

Reduce business costs

When a company has a poor reputation, per-hire costs are $4,723 higher. A poor reputation also damages relationships with exiting employees—limiting your ability to attract valuable boomerang talent.

Create a positive company culture

A majority of Americans (85%) think most companies don’t provide enough help to employees when laying them off, and more than 4 in 5 Americans think outplacement should be offered to every employee who is laid off by their employer. Don’t miss an opportunity to foster loyalty and productivity among remaining employees during a reduction in force by doing the right thing.
