Retrenchments & Redundancies

Retrenchments and redundancies are a common fact of life in today's working environment. Offsite Human Resources practitioners can assist you in building an approach that maintains the dignity and respect of affected employees as well as those who remain. These practitioners ensure that best practice methods are applied in career management and guidance, financial planning, interview and resume preparation, and package construction. All of this is done while ensuring all legal requirements are met and taxation implications accommodated.

OHR can undertake a critical evaluation of your business and determine what retrenchment and redundancy approach would best be applied to your circumstances. With many years of experience in managing such situations in the face of hostile employee relations, OHR can deliver you an effective and efficient outcome. In helping employees depart the business, OHR can assist in every aspect from providing direct outplacement support to affected individuals, to coaching line managers, to writing scripts for press, to facilitating "survivor" forums.

OHR has many years of experience in negotiations with trade unions and employee representatives, as well as a strong understanding of Industrial and Contract law, which it uses diligently on behalf of its clientele.
