Strategic Redundancy Implementation: Re-Focus, Re-Organise and Re-Build

Redundancy, restructuring, downsizing. There are few, if any, other  management books on this important topic, and yet the pace of  redundancies has only accelerated in recent years. Coupled with this,  many companies that implement redundancies as a cost-cutting exercise  often fail to achieve their goal.

Whilst viewed as an  uncomfortable topic by many, guidance on how to implement a redundancy  programme that is fair, proportionate and ultimately leads to improved  organisational performance, has never been more needed. This book fills  this important gap. It takes the reader through a redundancy  implementation strategy – Re-Focus, Re-Organise and Re-Build – that  incorporates the key aspects of planning and analysis, fairness and  justice, and prepares management for redundancy implementation through  training. What will your communications include? What will be your  strategy for implementation? What training does your management need?  Various helpful template examples are included for employee  consultation, communication and training.

The book will be invaluable for business managers, HR professionals, employee representatives and HR students.
