The Impact Of Higher Education Furloughs And Layoffs On Your Brand

Facing unprecedented shifts in both student and faculty needs and expectations, higher education must protect their institutional brand as they undergo change in order to continue to attract students and retain top faculty.

or 4 out of 5 Americans say receiving outplacement services would make them less likely to speak negatively about a former employer if they were to be laid off.*

Colleges and universities can bolster their long-term outlook by providing career transition benefits to faculty and staff affected by a layoff or other workforce restructuring, while retaining positive relationships with temporarily furloughed faculty and staff to make a quick return more likely as student enrollment numbers improve.

INTOO protects your brand reputation while lowering your unemployment costs and reducing the potential for litigation.

Job seeker feedback

“I was grateful that the university provided me with a severance package, which included INTOO’s outplacement program, because looking for a new job alone is hard. I met with my coach at least once a week to work on my resume and prepare for interviews. At one point I had an interview scheduled, which turned out to be a series of interviews with different people, and I kind of panicked. A pep talk from my coach calmed me down and made me realize this was actually a good thing. Having support from INTOO meant that I had guidance, tools and structure, and that I didn’t feel so alone when I needed more help.”

Client feedback

“With approximately 200,000 employees in our UC system, it’s critical that we partner with people-focused organizations that are able to meet our diverse needs as we support employees at all levels across 10 campuses, five medical centers, and national labs. The INTOO team is doing just that—supporting our staff with career mobility and career transition initiatives, and working with us to customize career development resources that meet the UC system’s employee engagement goals.”

Donna Salvo Executive Director, Systemwide Talent Management, University of California (UCOP)

“We don’t consider outplacement an optional benefit—it is a must-have for our people. We’ve been using INTOO’s outplacement program for nearly 3 years, and we’re pleased with the decision we made to join together with INTOO as partners. Outplacement has become more important, not just from a logistics standpoint for companies, but from a sheer support need for the people who are affected by workforce changes. The more people who can be in someone’s tribe during these times, with the opportunity to receive unlimited, personalized support from a professional career coach, the better.”
