A manager's guide to workforce restructures: online course
Most employers find the need to restructure their organisation (or part of their organisation) at some stage, in order to streamline the organisation to ensure it remains viable and cost-effective.
It is vital to undertake such a restructure reasonably and fairly, as the implications for the organisation in not doing so could be both costly and time-consuming and have a negative impact on staff.
