Abstract: | Reviews the need to downsize organizations and how to select those who are no longer required. Reviews alternative methods of outplacement and considers employee assistance programmes for the employees who remain. Considers a selection approach which uses critical job and competence analysis to define and prioritize jobs. Large companies have tended to undergo a greater reduction in workforce, particularly if they have been relatively insulated from market forces owing to high profitability or being part of the public sector. |
