Implications for Companies
Abstract
It is evident from these interviews that the way a person was made redundant can affect substantially the way he handled the practical and emotional problems which often can occur. It was equally evident that companies often increased these problems rather than facilitating the process. It is difficult to believe that most employers would want this and more likely that the company feels forced into this position by its own difficulties. Moreover, it is potentially damaging to the company since the way redundancy is handled may affect the morale and commitment of those who remain. Hence, there is potential benefit to both employer and employee in handling redundancy sensitively and, even given the difficulties of a company making people redundant, it should be possible to implement some strategies to ease the path of the unemployed person.
