Changing Market Conditions
Downsizing Strategies
One of the most valuable services for companies offered by PeninsulaWorks is layoff assistance. Downsizing staff is never an easy business decision, but PeninsulaWorks can help ease the transition for affected employees by visiting the company to present information about Career Center services. Especially during an economic slowdown, when businesses have no choice but to reduce staff, this type of assistance can help them make lay offs as smooth as possible for all parties involved.
"PeninsulaWorks has provided our employees with very important tools, not only to manage their short-term transition, but also to guide them in setting and making a plan to achieve larger professional and personal goals for their lives. The time, effort and special thought the PeninsulaWorks staff put into preparing the program of 8 outplacement workshops and accompanying materials was impressive - each workshop was comprehensive and well-suited to our individual employee needs. The workshops enabled them to develop the job search skills and, perhaps most importantly, the motivation and confidence needed to assist them during this challenging time."
