Outplacement Process

Retrenchment Planning Services

As part of Retrenchment Planning Services, MSI will assist line managers (if required) in the following areas:

Effective Separation – how to deliver a termination message effectively and with the minimum damage to both parties; and Counselling Support – how to properly counsel those affected during this period of uncertainty about future employment.

Outplacement Programs

MSI believes it is essential to partner with our clients during the strategy development, planning and implementation of any restructuring project. Our involvement is designed to ensure that all aspects of the restructuring, especially the retrenchment processes comply with legislative requirements but more importantly are seen by those retrenched and those remaining as a conscious effort to maintain the dignity and self esteem of those departing.

In addition, MSI has developed a range of individual Career Transition Management & Group Outplacement Programs which enable organisations to select the appropriate process for individuals who face career change or restructure.

Whilst the facilities and program resources vary according to the level of the program, all MSI programs include the following process:

  • Planning the effective departure of employees with the organisation
  • Assistance “on site” on the day of departure (if required)
  • Helping individuals to adjust to the effects of transition
  • An assisted self-assessment process. On some programs the use of psychological appraisal will help determine the next career move
  • Strategic advice that assists the development of career alternatives
  • Developing a job search strategy.

The following pages detail the content of the Individual and Group Outplacement programs and the processes that we see will work best for clients across the GCC:
