UK businesses should view the treatment of employees in times of transition as a critical element of their commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility, according to HR consultancy Right Management.

The company has launched RightChoice, a service that enables companies to provide employees with an unprecedented level of support during times of changes. At the same time, it allows companies to both enhance their competitive advantage in the marketplace and more deeply fulfil their commitment to social responsibility by supporting employees in transition right through to success.  

Nicola Deas, Right Management’s practice leader, Career Transition, says: “After months of extensive customer research, Right Management came to the very clear conclusion that we needed to develop a new approach to transition - one that puts candidates at the heart of the process and holds us, as a company, more accountable for fulfilling their career goals."

RightChoice launches today with a webinar event that will examine the choices available to the 21st century workforce.
