How Do You Cope With A Company Layoff?

Downsizing, right-sizing, it’s all fantasizing on the part of management to think they’re fooling anybody. If you’re in it, it’s a layoff. Here’s how to survive one at your company. Find out how the workforce reduction will affect you. Although you may be relieved to still have a job, what that job is may be impacted significantly by the fact that certain co-workers are no longer around to do theirs. Be proactive. Once you’ve looked at your new workload, spend some time with your manager figuring out how the work will get done with the department’s newly reduced resource base. Analyze your company’s situation carefully before deciding to make a job change. The layoff may well be an indicator of poor economic performance, but it may also be just what the company needs to turn itself around, creating more opportunity for employees who stick out the tough times.
