AFRESH Approach For Survivor Employees

For survivor employees, announcement of restructuring and redundancy will invariably have an adverse impact on morale, engagement and productivity. The negative effects however can be reduced by the choice of the outplacement provider and their sensitive handling of redundant employees and those still remaining. Not only is it vital to treat individuals being made redundant fairly, but it is also important to remember that the organisation’s ongoing effectiveness in today’s competitive market will be largely dependent on the morale of the survivors. It is therefore important that the company is seen to look after the employees who are being made redundant in the most comprehensive manner possible and where applicable offer some level of appropriate support to "survivor" employees.
