UK businesses should view the treatment of employees in times of transition as a critical element of their commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), says leading HR consultancy Right Management.
Eighteen months of global research with over 21,000 employees in transition has inspired Right Management to launch a radical new approach to outplacement called RightChoice.
RightChoice is an innovative service that enables companies to provide employees with an unprecedented level of support during times of changes. At the same time, it allows companies to both enhance their competitive advantage in the marketplace and more deeply fulfil their commitment to social responsibility by supporting employees in transition right through to success.
RightChoice sets a new industry standard for accountability in the outplacement process by:
Staying connected with candidates right through the transition journey - a first in the industry;
Being accountable for results to all clients and their employees;
Giving candidates greater choices about how transition services are accessed and delivered, enabling personalised approaches to achieving the goals of both the organisation and employee;
Delivering faster engagement so candidatesí transitions are smoother and more quickly produce a new career role;
Providing dedicated full-time career and job resource consultants whose expert guidance ensures that candidates identify the best possible career paths for them - and pursue them successfully.
ìAfter months of extensive customer research, Right Management came to the very clear conclusion that we needed to develop a new approach to transition - one that puts candidates at the heart of the process and holds us, as a company, more accountable for fulfilling their career goals, ì said Nicola Deas, Right Managementís Practice Leader, Career Transition. ìThrough RightChoice, weíve raised the bar on transition services enabling us to better fulfil our commitment to social responsibility and allowing our clients to do the same in a way that is meaningful to their employees.î
RightChoice launches on Friday, 1 June 2007 with a webinar event that will examine the choices available to the 21st century workforce. The webinar will be hosted by Richard Worsley, Director of The Tomorrow Project, a registered charity that helps individuals and organisations think and learn about the future of peopleís lives.
