Layoff Response Services

Purpose

Layoff Response Services are designed to assist your business and your employee(s) in the event of a layoff, plant closing, or reduction in force (RIF).  Our services can help you develop a comprehensive and effective plan, and possibly minimize or avoid the need to reduce your staff.  We want what is best for you, your business, and your impacted employee(s).  As a result, we work closely with your team to deliver a customized response. If a layoff should occur, WorkSource can help workers ease the transition between jobs.  Studies show people who use WorkSource services tend to find work faster and earn more money than individuals that do not.
