Why Use Outplacement for Terminations?
There are many benefits to utilizing outplacement services, during terminations or any similar transition period in which employees are leaving the organization, including minimizing potential risks that may occur during the transition process. Utilizing outplacement services like the ones provided by OutplacementPro can help your organization avoid direct and indirect costs, including:
Turnover
It is critical to retain remaining employees after a transition event.
With turnover costs ranging from 50% to 200% of a worker’s salary, an increase in turnover can have a dramatic impact on an organization’s costs.
Unemployment
State unemployment taxes directly affect the cost of an RIF.
The longer a transitioning employee is unemployed the greater the increase in tax rate.
Brand
A transition event can negatively impact a brand.
Organizations can lose customer loyalty, experience diminished brand sentiment, and have difficulty attracting new talent in the future.
Legal Risk
Litigation for wrongful terminations are rising.
Organizations are responsible for legal fees whether or not they are found guilty.
Do You Know the Risks of Terminating Someone?
There are some less obvious costs associated with a termination that could harm your organization. Many organizations offer career transition services (outplacement) to impacted individuals as a way to mitigate these risks.
Increased State Unemployment Taxes
State unemployment taxes directly affect the cost of downsizing. The longer a transitioning employee stays unemployed, the greater your tax liability will be. Reduce your state unemployment tax by getting the transitioning employees back to work faster with outplacement support.
