In these uncertain economic times with lower orders and reduced shipping volumes, some companies need to reduce staff to improve their cost levels. It is important for companies to recognize their own employer branding value in dealing with staff downsizing. Therefore, affected employees should be well supported in their transition out of the organization. What are the current outplacement policies? Which are the most important benefits of the outplacement services? Europhia Consulting is launching a Global Outplacement survey to understand how companies in the sector are managing downsizing of employees and what type of support matters most to affected employees. The survey is accessible online at http://europhia.com/outplacement_survey.html.
