AIRS Outplacement Passes Ten Million in Savings
New York, NY (PRWEB) July, 2003 - AIRS, a leading provider of human capital solutions, today announced that its Web-based and blended Employee Transition Services have saved clients over ten million dollars since its introduction eighteen months ago.
"That's a small drop in the bucket of an outplacement industry that charged employers over two billion dollars in the same period," according to AIRS CEO, Michael Foster. "But it's a strong start and a great affirmation that today's HR and finance executives are looking for more innovative, cost effective solutions for helping their displaced workers."
As a result of new Web-based tools and strategies, most other sectors in the staffing industry have undergone dramatic change. Yet traditional outplacement providers still rely on a high-cost, brick and mortar business model that passes significant overhead to the client. "That's partly because the industry was founded decades ago, as a service for executives who felt more comfortable looking for a new job from a corner office with a secretary," comments Foster. "But today's outplacement services are for ALL employees - and our research shows that people are far more comfortable working from their home PC, than commuting into the city to share a cubicle with other out-of-work job seekers."
AIRS Employee Transition Services are based on a sophisticated Career Portal that provides an unprecedented range of job search tools, training and information resources. Though AIRS also offers onsite training and project management, the majority of services, including follow-on training, coaching and counseling, are provided over the Web via the Portal. As a result, AIRS services have provided:
| | - Average savings of more than $2000 per separated employee
- A utilization rate almost double that of other providers
- 100% success, since AIRS stays with the job seeker until they land their next job
- Continuing access to workers that employees may need to hire back, soon
- Exceptionally positive user feedback
