Support for employees facing job loss

Outplacement is a service provided by companies to support employees who are being laid off or made redundant. The primary goal of outplacement is to assist these employees in finding new employment opportunities and transitioning to new roles or careers. This service is typically offered as part of an employee severance package.


  • Career counseling: Employees receive guidance on assessing their skills, interests, and career goals. They may also get help in identifying potential career paths and industries to target.
  • Resume writing and interview coaching: Assistance in creating or updating a resume, writing cover letters, and improving interview skills to increase their chances of securing a new job.
  • Job search support: Providing access to job listings, networking opportunities, and resources for finding job openings, as well as guidance on effective job search strategies.
  • Skill development: Offering training and resources for improving or acquiring new skills that may be relevant to the job market.
  • Emotional support: Assisting employees in dealing with the emotional and psychological aspects of job loss, including managing stress, coping with change, and maintaining motivation during the job search.
  • Financial advice: Providing information on managing finances during the period of unemployment and understanding severance packages, unemployment benefits, and other financial matters.

Outplacement services are often outsourced to specialised consulting firms that work with both employers and employees to facilitate the transition. By offering outplacement services, companies demonstrate their commitment to supporting employees during a challenging time and help preserve their reputation as an employer of choice. It can also help departing employees land new positions more quickly, which is beneficial for all parties involved.
