Workforce Reduction Planning Toolkit

With economic and political uncertainty rising, especially amid ongoing trade and tariff tensions, it’s more important than ever to ensure your organization has a clear, compliant, and people-first approach to workforce reduction.

In Canada, around 45% of small and medium-sized businesses lack a formal off-boarding process, highlighting a major gap in workforce transition planning.

To support HR leaders through these challenging moments, we’ve created two versions of our Workforce Reduction Planning Toolkit.

Stay ahead of uncertainty with a plan that protects your people and your business.

Workforce reductions are among the most difficult decisions an organization faces, carrying lasting impact on both departing and remaining employees. While this toolkit offers practical guidance, every situation brings its own human and operational complexities.

If you’d like support in approaching these decisions with both strategic rigour and genuine care, connect with us. We’re here to help you build a transition plan that honours your people while meeting your business needs.
