There is no doubt that going through redundancy is a difficult and stressful time, with concerns about getting a new job, financial security and of course, doubts about what you have to offer a new employer. For some people being made redundant is what they have been waiting for; it means they can retire early or invest in plans they have long had, but for others (and this is most people), it’s a challenging time and can lead to feelings of anger, denial, sadness, worry, fear, helplessness and being out of control, not to mention the knock your confidence takes. However, with the right support and approach redundancy can lead to positive changes and a new way of life. Redundancy is a time to consider and evaluate all your options and regain control. Some people chose to move to a different company and do the same type of work, whilst others decide to go part-time, re-train or even become self-employed. There are a number of opportunities and it’s about looking at your skills and experience, your financial and family situation and your future needs. We can help you do this and move forward. Whatever your situation we can help you consider your options and

Testimonies From Previous Clients I genuinely believe my day with Clair made all the difference to my overall employability. Her advice on CV’s, interview preparation, application forms etc. was fantastic, but for me the best thing was that she helped me to see the value of my skills and experience, raising my self-esteem and confidence. I was successful in securing two job offers within two weeks of my consultation with her. Penny, Wiltshire Children's Fund. Barking & Dagenham PCT has worked with Change Works Unlimited to provide external independent support to help staff make choices during periods of career change. A recent employee using the service commented 'Clair was very professional, enthusiastic, encouraging and very easy to engage with. She tailored the day to my needs and picked up on main issues as we went, offering suggestions and ideas, (many of which I will and have already) taken forward. She gave two different formats for putting together a CV which helped you draw out ideas depending on how you were hoping to use them and demonstrated how you could use your current Job Description to assess your strengths and weaknesses. She also went through different sources and suggestions for sourcing jobs. After a difficult period at work, which involved possible redundancy, I felt drained and confused about my career. I applied for other jobs but I was not being selected for interviews. My confidence and self belief were at rock bottom. I knew I needed advice and a chance to talk through my concerns. I spent two hours with Clair and was able to talk honestly for the first time about my position. Clair was able to help me focus and highlight what I needed to change and how to starting moving forward. The process has been quite enlightening and I know I can now achieve my goal. JD, Lancing
Are you a business or organisation going through change or facing redundancies? The world of work is constantly changing, organisations face fierce competition and increasing demands from customers for better quality and service. In order to stay competitive bold decisions have to be made, which at times have a direct impact on the very employees who have contributed to business success. Change to the way we work and the threat of redundancy is a reality that most employees recognise, but it does not mean that they will take the news well when they are impacted. They will naturally focus on their personal situation and will feel a range of emotions, their fear and anger could result in loss of productivity, poor customer service, a lack of motivation and low morale across the business, even those not impacted will feel insecure. However, the experience does not need to be a negative one. If managed well with full and appropriate support employees are able to deal with the change professionally and tackle their career transition with greater confidence. We offer a variety of services to support organisations and their employees through difficult times of change with the aim of turning a negative situation into a positive experience. As a result of supporting your employees in such a way you are protecting your brand and taking positive action to minimise the impact to valued customers and future clients.
