AIRS Announces New ROI Reporting Suite For Horizons Outplacement Platform
Wilder, VT – AIRS, a global leader in human capital management solutions, announces that it has enhanced the ROI reporting functionality of its dynamic Web-based outplacement platform, Horizons. This sophisticated new reporting capability allows companies to measure the ROI of their outplacement costs by providing usage reports that track the time transitioned employees utilize Horizons.
"Already successfully used by over 16,000 outplaced job seekers, Horizons has saved their sponsoring organizations over $10 million in outplacement fees," said Christian K. Forman, CEO of AIRS. "This new feature will allow companies to truly capture the value of Horizons by providing detailed tracking information that can be directly tied to the bottom line."
Horizons is a highly personal, affordable alternative to traditional 'brick and mortar' outplacement, and is built around the most sophisticated and powerful Web-based career transition platform on the market. Companies who use Horizons are able to help their employees, from entry-level to executive, transition to a new jobs while also maintaining a strong brand identity through private-label career portals filled with job search information, training and tools. Because Horizons is Web-based, it allows companies to offer a wide range of self-service outplacement resources to a much larger population of their workers for a lower cost.
"Horizons helps companies maintain important relationships with their former workers by providing vital tools, training and resources for twelve months – a much longer time period than that offered by traditional services," said Forman. "And by saving money on outplacement, they can reinvest in their companies and fulfill their fiduciary responsibilities to shareholders."
Tools offered through Horizons include: AIRS Self Assessment, Contact Manager, Ad Tracker, E-Calendar, Email, File Cabinet, Resume Builder, Cover Letter Builder, Resume Manager, AIRSXPress resume distribution and AIRS PowerJob Search. Horizons also includes one-on-one career coaching with a certified AIRS Career Coach and AIRS research and resources, including access to its Job Board, Recruiter, Organization and Association Directories and Job Search Library. Participants also have access to unlimited industry-leading AIRS training on such topics as Resume Building, Networking and Interviewing. AIRS also provides a blended solution of targeted onsite training, coaching, and support to companies experiencing major, large-scale downsizing.
Of all job seekers who have accessed Horizons, 100 percent have said that they would recommend it to family and friends who were looking for work; and over 87 percent said they would act as a reference for AIRS. Satisfied users indicated that, because Horizons is Web-based and therefore may be accessed from anywhere, they were more likely to tap into all of its tools and resources without sacrificing quality or support.
AIRS clients indicate a high satisfaction with the corporate branding and cost savings, but also feel assured that they are supporting their employees' job search efforts for up to twelve months through Horizons, rather than the one to three months that higher-cost, office-based, traditional outplacement services provide.
"That's why AIRS Horizons works," said Forman. "It allows companies to retain their corporate identity, provide resources, and ultimately assist employees in finding work elsewhere for a fraction of the cost."
