Com­mu­nic­at­ing job cuts requires not only the right words, but also metic­u­lous plan­ning. If the job reduc­tion is a mass dis­missal, the leg­al reg­u­la­tions must be observed exactly.

In recent weeks, we have sup­por­ted sev­er­al com­pan­ies in pre­par­ing for mass lay­offs and con­sulta­tion pro­ced­ures as well as in com­mu­nic­at­ing job cuts cor­rectly and appro­pri­ately. Cor­rectly imple­men­ted, com­plaints, con­flicts and per­son­al injur­ies can be avoided.
