Common Questions
HOW DO I BEGIN USING MY CAREER TRANSITION SERVICES?
Typically, the business will turn over the list of approved displaced employees to the Outplacement firm with extremely limited contact information for each person impacted. At that point the participant contacts the Outplacement firm, or the Outplacement firm reaches out to the participant depending on the sponsoring organization. Once the participant has accepted Outplacement services, they will then be set-up with a career coach who will help the employee create a structured career campaign strategy to re-enter the workforce. Note all severance agreements must have a period of rescission by law. Many companies will allow Outplacement services immediately, but some will require the wait of the contract recession period.
WILL MY SEVERANCE PACKAGE REMAIN IN PLACE UNTIL I HAVE OBTAINED A NEW POSITION WITH THE HELP OF THE OUTPLACEMENT SERVICES?
Severance packages and agreements are legal documents that are carefully drawn up by attorneys to comply with local, state and Federal laws. They are contract law documents and remain in effect based on the parameters of the contract descriptions. There is no “one” severance agreement format. Within that each of the areas has definitions about what and how long they apply. By law they are defined in scope and applicability. Both employer and employee have defined penalties if the contract is violated.
However, that being said, there are a variety of situations that may occur so be sure to read your severance agreement carefully and clarify any questions you have with your employer. Some companies may terminate the severance package upon the displaced employee finding employment. Other companies may establish time frames meaning you could have started your new role while still receiving your severance package benefits expired and still job searching.
