Flexible Outplacement Support
At Times of Change, and Always With Heart
Redundancy.
This one single word can immediately conjure up so many different emotions.
If you’re having to discuss this topic with someone, you’re generally going to be feeling uncomfortable, maybe guilty and, without doubt, sympathetic. We can all empathise how the receiving person would be feeling.
If you are delivering the message of redundancy, wouldn’t you feel better knowing that you are providing support to those individuals to help them turn this imposed life event into an opportunity?
If you’re on the receiving end of this word, you’re generally going to be feeling a combination of scared and worried. Being told your job is no longer yours can feel as though your world has been turned on its head.
When someone learns they are being made redundant, they need an empathetic human being, to talk to, to listen, to understand, and then motivate and coach.
We Want to Help.
At ProAction HR, we are not a system led, tick box programme. We are people who get it, we understand, and provide human to human support.
People are at the heart of what we do and nowhere is this more evident than our flexible Outplacement Programme. Always with a commercial focus and a drive to create proactive change for the benefit of your company, we are equally focused on seeing employees as people, and managing their experience at what can be a distressing time.
Offering an individual, tailored approach, our flexible outplacement programme recognises that a ‘one size fits all’ solution will leave many people without the skills or support they need to move forward after redundancy.
Our reasonably priced Outplacement Programme ensures that each employee who is facing a period of significant change in their life receives human support and compassion. And because we know that everyone is different, and will have different needs, we offer a pick and mix selection of support choices that can be tailored to suit each individual. This ethos is designed to help them feel more in control of their future and give them the tools to create a plan that suits their unique needs.

How Does Our Programme Work?
Your business purchases credits and distributes these as you feel is most appropriate. The credits form a balance to be used over a set timeframe, usually six months from when an individual first attends the initial Outplacement session.
We advise that the minimum credit level per employee is 75, which allows each individual to choose a basic Outplacement package.
In an initial Next Steps coaching session, and with the provision of an outplacement psychometric report, each person will have the opportunity to identify where to focus their efforts to take the best next steps to suit them. They then have access to a range of career coaching or self-development options to choose from.
Courses can be delivered face-to-face or online. Most are deliverable to groups of four or more participants, or via individual 1-2-1 sessions.
The range of options come in two categories designed to be tailored to suit non-management to executive board level individuals.

Employee Engagement
The world of work and the expectations of workers has changed in recent years. Striking a balance between what your business needs and what employees now want and expect is the key to engaging and retaining your people in such a way as to create a healthy and productive workplace culture.
Change Management
Do you need to make a change in your business to sustain growth or scale? Change comes in many forms and is often met with resistance, fear, and uncertainty of the outcome. Many see change as unnecessary or threatening. Many also pay it lip service so it never happens or is seen as an unsuccessful drain on both resource and budget.
Wellness
Your people are your company’s greatest asset and what the pandemic showed us all is that their wellness is paramount. Wellness is not just about ticking a box; it is about doing what is right and demonstrating the importance and value of that asset within your organisationt.
Managing TUPE
If you are a business owner looking to grow through acquisition or looking to sell your business, or you take on new business from competitors then you should be aware of the employment law regulations TUPE (Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations). ProAction HR can support your business at times of change.
Culture Audit
Company culture refers to the way your teams’ communication and behaviour reflect the values, vision and goals of your organisation. A truly emb edded company culture creates a healthier and happier workplace, leading to better productivity and higher employee retention.
