Jobs for life are a thing of the past. Moving between employers, business sectors and locations has become the norm. But even if we have taken the concept of change on board, a redundancy notice can still knock a hole in our personal defences.
Anger, hurt, self-doubt and existential worries are part and parcel of the break-up of an employment relationship. To get over the initial shock, we have to accept the new situation quickly, rebuild self-confidence and nurture the courage to change. Only then can we recognise opportunities, set new targets, develop appropriate strategies and move purposefully forward towards the goal of landing a new job.
Companies that take their corporate social responsibilities seriously will provide career guidance for employees and offer the professional support needed to secure their professional futures after separation.
Redundancy has far-reaching consequences for the employee's long-term plans and can cause anxiety and stress. The persons affected worry about their future income and financial security, specifically about maintaining their family's standard of living and continuing to meet financial obligations. When redundancy looms, a severance package therefore seems the obvious answer to the problem of income loss. Sadly, golden handshakes often provide little more than short-term financial relief. Without outside help, many people fail to solve the underlying problem of unemployment before the money runs out. Investing in career reorientation services, however, pays off and offers the prospect of re-employment. In the medium to long term, this investment will secure the individual's professional and financial future.
Outplacement, inplacement, newplacement - the names of the individual consultancy programmes may vary, but the objective is always the same: to find a position with long-term prospects that matches your qualifications. Sooner rather than later.
