Outplacement Services
Alecto offers outplacement services to include the following:
- Assist employees to better cope and manage a career transition to their career/job choice
- Assist employees to be job-ready for future opportunities and get them open to a broader range of employment options
- Protect and enhance the image of your company as an employer of choice in the marketplace
Our goal is to provide individual and structured assistance to employees that are undergoing career transitioning or redundancy. Our sensitive and skilled counseling and support recognizes the needs of individuals and can be tailored to suit varying circumstances. In our experience, there are some key factors that should be offered by Outplacement services: –
- Choice for the employee concerned
- Flexibility of service
- Professionalism and empathy
- A clear career transition process
- Choice
The news of losing your current role can be highly traumatic and sensitive to individuals who can feel lost, embarrassed, upset, scared for the future. Giving the employee the choice to use outplacement services and how this may assist them in the future can be invaluable for their mental wellbeing.
- Flexibility
With Outplacement services, we offer various options to enable the employee to choose what services will suit their individual needs offering them freedom and flexibility depending on their circumstances.
- Professionalism and empathy
It is important to give the feeling of support and empathy to an individual who feels displaced by the news of being redeployed or made redundant. Having someone to talk through these feelings with a consultant who is external to an organization can be very important to the employee and gives them a platform to vent possible feelings of anger and frustration. Our consultants will make arrangements to meet with the individual privately to outline the services available to them.
