Rightsizing is a proactive approach to downsizing and restructuring that organizations should manage on a continual basis. Planning and preparing for workforce changes significantly increases the likelihood of success and recovery post-rightsizing. Companies know that they must make intelligent and legal decisions about employee movement during a rightsizing, but too often companies are unsure and unaware of the criteria used to make these decisions. 

With a lack of consideration in determining labour force movement during rightsizing, more than half of the companies that underwent workforce reductions report that they were understaffed within a year, while 2 out of 3 report no improvements in productivity or profits.

At ACCOUNTABLE HR, we help you proactively manage your workforce through developing a rightsizing policy that is realistic, actionable, legally defensible and most importantly, aligned with the organizational business strategy.  Our service offering includes assistance with: 


  • Organizational policy development regarding labour force movement

  • Examination of alternative approaches to rightsizing including job redesign, alternative work arrangements, early retirement, voluntary separation and more
