- About ARTS
In outplacement support, employees affected by staff reductions work out new perspectives together with neutral, external experts and coaches. This is also a protected space for processing the various emotions in the separation process. Especially if the requirements of the previous job have changed considerably, it may not be enough to diligently write applications for a new job. In this case, outplacement counselling helps to develop a new career perspective including an application strategy.
The earlier you involve outplacement services, the calmer and more collaborative this difficult time can be for everyone involved. This is the ideal separation process:
Identifying key positions between retention and outplacement
Preparation of managers for the interview process
Emotional support for the employee after the separation meeting
Potential analysis, career planning, goal setting and application training for your employee
Annual reviews, salary negotiations and disciplinary meetings are stressful for many managers. Finding the right tone and words, and responding appropriately and sensitively to emotions, can be challenging.
Knowing the basics of communication and being well prepared can help you approach feedback meetings in a more relaxed way.
The aim of a separation should always be for managers and former employees to be able to look each other in the eye later on. To achieve this, the way in which employees are treated during the separation process and the way in which they are bid farewell is crucial.
If the process is characterised by fairness and appreciation, anger and negative consequences on both sides will be minimised.
Leadership style is one of the success factors for a productive corporate culture. Appraisals are often discussed in management development seminars, but in day-to-day management it is difficult to implement the desired leadership behaviour.
This is where executive coaching comes in as the most effective tool for advising managers.
With our outplacement services, you can quickly help your employees get back on track after the separation process.
In terms of socially acceptable separation, outplacement offers a valuable opportunity for both employees and employers.
Our separation management consistently demonstrates fairness, which has a lasting positive effect on employees.
Outplacement is more effective than severance payments, dismissal protection procedures or long residual employment periods.
What is outplacement?
Outplacement counselling is a professional service offered by companies to help departing employees to find a new job or a new career. This type of support is often offered in the context of redundancy, reorganisation or other work-related separation processes. The aim of outplacement counselling is to make the transition as smooth and positive as possible for those affected.
The key aspects of outplacement services are:
Outplacement counselling not only demonstrates a company's social responsibility to its employees, but also enhances the company's image by showing that it supports its employees even in difficult times. This service promotes a positive perception of the company both internally and externally and can have a positive impact on future recruitment and ret

How is outplacement success measured?
In general, the aim of outplacement counselling is to achieve an 'end without horror', so that all parties involved can look to the future with renewed strength after a professional separation. One criterion for success is therefore the avoidance of protracted and exhausting legal disputes. For employees, the most important success is, of course, to find a new job as soon as possible - one that may even be more fulfilling than the previous one? Ideally, the separation should be perceived as fair by all parties, so that the rating on employer review sites such as kununu or Glassdoor is positive and the separation process does not have a negative impact on your employer brand.
