Nottingham based Payroll and Business Solutions (PBS UK Ltd) has
boosted its outsourced Human Resources package with the addition of
a new outplacement service to provide vital support and training
for businesses and their employees dealing with redundancy.
With unemployment set to reach the three million mark in 2010
PBS has launched the new service to help smooth the redundancy
process. As part of the new service PBS will work closely with
businesses to determine a bespoke strategy to make the process as
simple as possible. Services for employees include; help with CV
and letter writing, interview and networking skills, guidance on
how to find vacancies and apply for them as well as consultation
and advice on further training and support available to ensure
employees are prepared for their next career move.
Pam Pindar, Managing Director of PBS also has over 20 years
experience in recruitment and said, "Handling change, in particular
redundancy situations is very difficult and time consuming but it
is vital that it is handled correctly - not just for the employees
directly affected but also for the staff left behind. Redundancy is
always a last resort but businesses need to do everything they can
to give those employees affected the best possible chance of being
re-employed.
With more competition for less jobs employees need to ensure
their training and skills are up to date. Our service provides all
the basics as well as offering support on a more personal level for
the individuals affected. Many businesses simply don't have the
time or resources in house to proved this type of help, by
outsourcing to PBS they will be provided with support from CIPD
qualified consultants who will ensure a smooth process for all
involved."
PBS offers a range of HR support from ad-hoc projects to a
comprehensive retainer service. The online HR document shop also
provides a range of employment documents covering a range of topics
that can be purchased online. PBS also provides a complete UK
Payroll service that complies with UK Payroll legislation.
