Just 10%. That’s how many HR professionals considered themselves to be extremely satisfied with their company’s Glassdoor rating and overall employer brand. At Vetted, we surveyed HR leaders throughout the Northeast, and our results were surprising. One trend we noticed was that HR professionals who were less satisfied with their company’s employer brand often do not provide outplacement services to their displaced employees. In today’s world, a company’s online reputation is everything, and HR leaders know that having negative Glassdoor reviews or an overall poor employer brand can pose significant stumbling blocks to attracting top talent. Increasingly, former employees go to sites like Reddit or Glassdoor after being impacted by a RIF or layoff, but the comments they leave don’t necessarily have to be negative. That’s where outplacement services come into play. It should be the responsibility of the employer to not only take care of their employees while employed, but also if they are let go—especially for no fault of their own. By equipping displaced employees with all the tools and support that they need to secure their next role, not only are companies protecting themselves, but they’re also doing the right thing. Plain and simple. #OutplacementServices #CareerSupport #HRLeadership #EmployeeAdvocacy #CareerTransition #TechLayoffs
