Dismissal

A layoff situation often has far-reaching consequences for the employer and employee and brings uncertainty for both parties. Mediation (also offered through Panthion) and legal assistance in the form of an attorney are often discussed in this situation. This often ignores the question, “Do I want the bottom line, or just a nice new job…”

"A termination notice is often preceded by a long period of frustration and annoyance. Employers try to put off the inevitable as long as possible. Only when the bucket overflows is the measure full. Once the notice is given, many employers struggle with the same question: do we go to court or do we try to work it out with the employee ourselves? Our job is to bring all of this back to an appropriate strategy. Our commitment: a good solution and close the chapter as soon as possible. Time to look forward again."

The longer the employment has lasted, the more difficult / painful the negotiation process often becomes. Emotions play a big role in a layoff and, in fact, there is grief and loss. That, too, must be respected.

Our counselors can take a more contemplative look at the layoff situation. Taking into account the different wishes and interests. In a professional and transparent manner, we can advise and assist employer and employee. Then there are various instruments that can be deployed, which Panthion can also advise and support:

  • To file or not to file?
  • To improve or not to improve?
  • What about any transition pay?
  • What is the notice period;
  • Are we going to use outplacement or not?
  • Who will help us with the settlement agreement (VSO)?
  • When in conflict, should we use a mediator?
  • Which attorney can we engage as an employer/employee?

We can answer all these questions and also guide you.

Dismissal is a specialty and so is counseling the employee. So get expert advice and don't take any chances.

"After more than 16 years with my previous employer, it was the end of the road for me and I had to look for a new job. I ended up at Panthion through the Internet and at the intake interview with my career counselor there was an immediate click and a good feeling. The continued guidance of my outplacement process was fantastic, I can't say otherwise. Clear communication and agreements, good and competent advice and guidance, infectious enthusiasm. The excellent guidance in writing my letters and good preparation for job interviews helped me tremendously. The LinkedIn workshop was also very informative and valuable. And after 5 months of outplacement through Panthion, I found a fantastic job where I am having a great time. All in all, a tremendously positive experience!"
"I know Rik as a humble, well-qualified professional with an eye for detail. Actively involved in what is necessary, without being in the foreground, but clearly keeping the intended goal in mind. I have found the conversations from Panthion to be positively inspiring. My coach gave me a beautiful mirror through these conversations and assignments. I look back fondly on our discussions held and am pleased with the results achieved."
"Because I was offered a new position with my employer during the process, the outplacement process was converted into a coaching process. Because of this, I can't give suggestions that are helpful to you. I had a particularly good time during our sessions, for which my heartfelt thanks. Rating : 9"
"I started a program at Panthion because I was not in my place at my old employer. I didn't really know what I wanted in the next job, which makes job searching quite difficult. For this reason, we started looking at what I really wanted. Panthion's career counselor helped me a lot with that. Together we looked at what I can do and what I want. Then my coach helped me get my resume all in order and write cover letters. When I had a job interview, she helped me very much to prepare for it. As a result, on my first job application, I was offered a job that is exactly what I am looking for! So thanks to Panthion, I found the perfect place in a very short time."
"The coach offered to me through Panthion was a very patient and professional coach. I therefore went through the career path with great pleasure and new insights. My coach was very helpful, resourceful, very positive. This very much contributed to the trajectory. A real people person with good knowledge!"
"I liked the outplacement process at Panthion. The practical and goal-oriented approach helped me well in making the right choices in my job search and prepared me well for my job applications. Eventually, this quickly led to a new job. Ultimately, of course, you have to do it yourself, but Panthion helps you get started well, and gets you thinking differently about what is important to you and your career."
