Balancing Compassion and Compliance Before, During, and After a Layoff
As the post pandemic-era boom has slowed down, large brand companies are slashing headcount in reaction to business growth slowing down and labor costs increasing. In 2022, many Americans were laid off in the U.S. alone, and although the press has recently been focused on high-profile tech industry layoffs, similar activity can be seen across industries. As we kick off 2023, it’s critical for organizations to consider how to balance compassion and compliance when planning a reduction in force or layoff.
Join Sarah Rodehorst, CEO & Cofounder of Onwards HR, and Raymond Lee, President of CareerMinds, as they discuss best practices to reduce risk while humanizing your process before, during, and after layoffs.
Together they will discuss and share:
How to prepare and plan for a layoff that complies with employment laws
Effective communication strategies to ensure a positive exit experience
Recommendations on how to help your organization recover after a layoff
