“This might not be the kind of technology HR professionals think they need, but once they have it, they'll realize the considerable time savings it creates and the pressure it removes from HR and legal teams in ensuring accuracy of required documentation, as well as avoiding any wrongful termination lawsuits."

Manage workforce reductions with ease and compassion

Let’s face it. A reduction in force (RIF) is distressing for everyone involved. It’s painful to part with employees, especially when it’s not their fault. Combined with the complexity of the separation process and employment laws, it’s no surprise reductions in force make waves throughout the workplace. Though the process will never be pleasant, there’s an easier way to say goodbye.  Our reduction in force management tool makes it easy to stay in compliance, giving you more time to provide a positive employee exit experience.

Automate severance pay and packages

With configurable severance automation tools, Onwards HR helps employers streamline the separation process in compliance with corporate policy and employment laws. We make it easy to provide offboarding benefits, leading to reduced legal risk, improved morale, and brand preservation. Plus, by automating administrative tasks, your team can spend more time focused on the business.

Evaluate for WARN Act compliance and adverse impact

Workforce reductions and changes in operations are an inevitable part of conducting business. These decisions must be made after consideration of state and federal laws designed to protect employees. Onwards HR’s Compliance Analytics tools assess compliance with local laws and provide compliant templates for mandated forms.

Ensure consistent and supportive transitions

Treating employees with respect and support requires well-coordinated and effective communication. Smart offboarding checklists empower HR to provide a positive exit experience and ensure timely completion of each step in the process. Follow a consistent process to ensure that important assets, including keys, online accounts, and expensive equipment, are collected from employees before they leave the organization. To ease the transition, proactively answer employee questions.
