The current global economic challenges have made workforce reductions an unpleasant necessity for many organizations.  How your organization handles terminations makes a strong statement to those affected and to remaining employees. The approach taken can make a long lasting impact on your profile and reputation as an employer!

Planning and implementing terminations of salaried or hourly non unionized employees is a necessary but unpleasant task that calls for very effective Human Resources leadership and planning. If handled improperly, workforce reductions can lead to expensive and unnecessary litigation, ill will amongst remaining employees, the turnover of employees you wanted to retain or even to calls for unionization of the workplace. Although this is an unwelcome task many organizations must face, there are methods to handle terminations effectively to ensure that these and other risks are reduced.

Join Mike A.Cuma Vice President of Labour Relations and Human Resources for Legacy Bowes Group, as he shares over 25 years of experience and insight into how to effectively plan for and implement workforce reductions.
