The financial crisis, which has already triggered real-economy effects such as suspensions, layoffs, and a halt in hiring, also fueled inquiries about outplacement in Córdoba. What is it? It's support for employees in their reintegration into the workforce after being laid off or leaving a company, primarily for middle managers, managers, and directors.
Through personalized support, the layoff worker is helped to address the job market, exploring possibilities and reflecting on their future goals. They are also assisted in building a network of contacts, identifying how to handle interviews, designing multiple resumes, finding places to spontaneously present themselves, and discovering their entrepreneurial spirit.
Amid the financial crisis and compounded by local issues, fears about the possibility of mass layoffs increased after several companies admitted in recent hours that they could not guarantee the continuity of their employees. Although outplacement programs have historically been offered by large corporations or multinationals, some SMEs have begun inquiring about this system, interested in relocating or providing assistance to their future "ex-employees," regardless of their position, from executive to middle management and operational positions.
With a good outplacement program, efficient job placement begins before the decision to terminate the employee is made. The program's objective is for the dismissed employee to find a new job appropriate to their level within a period of six to nine months. To this end, they are provided with training, resources, and various types of assistance. This service is free of charge for the dismissed employee, as it is provided by the dismissing company. Through this action, the dismissed employee contributes to its Corporate Social Responsibility, which contributes to a positive image both externally and for the employees who remain within the company.
Action Group offers individual programs for senior and mid-level staff and group programs for operational positions, with various modalities and durations.
