Outplacement for US reductions
Outplacement your people keep, with a compliance record for every seat
Each person leaving gets a seat, job search tools and a Dossier that stays theirs. HR sees counts, never individuals. Legal gets a compliance record for each seat. Add everyone from one list.
The scorecard is the eight questions to ask every outplacement vendor, with a sheet to compare the answers. Use it on us too.
What your HR team sees
This is reporting for a cohort as an HR team opens it. Northwind Foods and the numbers are invented.
Reporting for HR Sample data
Reporting is in aggregate, so HR sees how the program is running without any individual being identifiable from the numbers. The people and numbers are invented.

Roster Sample data
It shows who holds a seat and whether the seat is in use. It never shows anyone’s activity, grade or progress. The people and numbers are invented.
Compliance record Sample data
Legal gets a record for each seat showing the outplacement benefit was made available, and it holds no job search, assessment or engagement detail. The people and numbers are invented.
How it works
Start a pilot
Tell us about the reduction you are planning. We set up a pilot of up to 10 seats at no charge, then scope the full program with you by contract: the plan, the number of seats and the term.
Enroll the people leaving
Add people one at a time or upload a list. Each person gets an invitation, a seat and a Dossier that is theirs to keep.
Track the program and keep the record
Follow seats and engagement in counts, and download the compliance record for each seat for your legal team.

Questions
What does the pilot include?
Up to 10 seats at no charge for a reduction you are planning, with the seats, Dossiers, HR reporting and compliance records described on this page. If it fits, we scope the full program with you by contract.
Do you publish a placement rate?
No. We do not state a placement rate or a speed until we have outcome data to back it. Reporting shows seats, activation and engagement for your own cohorts, and time to placement once enough people have recorded a placement.
What can HR see about each person?
Who holds a seat and whether it is in use. HR never sees anyone’s activity, grade or progress. Reporting is in aggregate, and small cohorts are held back, rounded or reported quarterly so no individual can be identified.
What does legal get?
A record for each seat showing the outplacement benefit was made available and, where dated, activated or placed. It holds no job search, assessment or engagement detail.
What happens to a person’s access when the contract ends?
The Dossier, the references and an alumni account stay theirs. Your company’s reporting access ends with the contract term.
Do you cover a reduction across many countries?
NextChapter is built for reductions in the United States. If you are reducing across many countries with local labor-law needs, a provider with a global footprint may fit better.
Where can I read about security and data handling?
On https://launchyournextchapter.com/security, which includes our current SOC 2 status.
Run your next reduction as a pilot
