WRONG! Many employers fail to realize that the offboarding process is just as important as is onboarding. It\u2019s relatively common for the HR department to focus only on the first part of the employee\u2019s lifecycle.

The rewards of effective offboarding are huge. Also, the investment made in offboarding has shown to result in higher employee retention and a better engagement rate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plain and simple, the proper offboarding plan helps HR managers facilitate the transition better on both sides.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Creating an offboarding plan is crucial.

However, in general, here are 11 steps when it comes to offboarding.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>1.

Initial Documentation &amp; Collection of Information<\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first thing that needs to be done upon the news of an employee leaving is to have them <\/span><b>sign a formal resignation letter<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Following this, the HR manager or supervisor can <\/span><b>review documents the employee has signed throughout their time in the company<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. As an example, these may be non-disclosure agreements, benefits documents, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure that on the resignation letter, the employee clearly states <\/span><b>when their last working day is<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and the date they are communicating their leave.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px; text-align: center;\"><b>Using an HR management system like <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/factorialhr.com\/document-management\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><b>FactorialHR<\/b><\/a><b>, helps you easily store documents of terminated employees for better record keeping.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/factorialhr.com\/request-demo\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-121178\" src=\"https:\/\/factorialhr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/21142328\/offboarding-demo-banner-1-300x103.png\" alt=\"Offboarding\" width=\"800\" height=\"274\" srcset=\"https:\/\/factorialhr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/21142328\/offboarding-demo-banner-1-300x103.png 300w, https:\/\/factorialhr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/21142328\/offboarding-demo-banner-1-768x263.png 768w, https:\/\/factorialhr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/21142328\/offboarding-demo-banner-1.png 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h4><b>3. Inform Accounting\u00a0<\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At this stage, you can <\/span>inform accounting <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">so they can prepare tax documents, the last payroll, calculate any outstanding reimbursements, vacation days, and prepare compensation if required.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>4. Announce Departure\u00a0<\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rather than wait for employees to start gossiping around the office, make sure that all employees who are impacted in a major way, as a result of the departure, will be informed. This is typically done, 1.5 weeks or more before the employee leaves, depending on their role in the team. Following this, other members of staff can be informed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a courtesy, it\u2019s best to ask the outgoing employee whether there is a specific way they would like the company to frame the news.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>5. Plan Handoffs\u00a0<\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The important piece at this stage is to focus on the creation of a handoff plan to ensure the best possible transition. This plan is focused on wrapping up any existing tasks, whilst also laying the groundwork for the new employee entering into the role. A clear understanding of how to transition the workload and shift priorities is key! This is the<\/span><b> stage of knowledge transfer<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Important questions to ask while planning the handoff are:\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who will be the replacement?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What will their training needs be?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who will train the new employee?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Which projects need completion before the employee leaves?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What are the deliverables?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><b>6. Client communication\u00a0<\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the case the outgoing employee works directly with clients, it is vital that these clients be notified in due course. Also, in whichever way you decide to <strong>communicate this departure with the clients<\/strong>, it is best to approach the communication in a way that ensures each client knows they will continue to be taken care of, regardless of the change in staff.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>7. Collect Company Property<\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the employee\u2019s time in the company, they may have acquired a number of company items. In the days before they leave, you will need to collect these items. Company property can be anything from computers, mobile devices, ID badge, uniform, keys, parking permits, or company credit cards among others. Our <\/span><b>free inventory item checklist<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> covers all the most common items you will need to collect from outgoing employees.

Exit Interview<\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The purpose of an exit interview is to gain valuable feedback on the employee\u2019s experience while with the company. This is the company\u2019s last opportunity to make a positive impression. From the exit interview, you can also gather information from the employee that will help management make better decisions in the future.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Which questions should you ask? <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2714\ufe0f <a href=\"#offboarding2\">Download our free checklist for offboarding<\/a> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">for the answers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Asking the right questions will provide management with valuable information and insights for the company, into their strengths and weaknesses, and how they can improve.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>9. Revoke Account Access<\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No matter how good of a relationship you have with the outgoing employee, for security reasons, they should no longer have access to emails, platforms, and other company databases when they leave.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>10. Farewell\u00a0<\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although depending on the reasons for the departure, a farewell is always a good idea for each and every employee. This type of sendoff ensures a positive impression is left for both the employee leaving and the existing staff.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Show the employee that you have valued their contribution to the team. This can be done by giving them a gift, writing a thank you from the team or even throwing a party for them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the last day, it is advisable to send a farewell announcement, as a reminder to the rest of the team to wish the outgoing employee a good farewell.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>11. Follow-up<\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s never a good idea to burn bridges. For this reason, it\u2019s advisable to<strong> keep in touch<\/strong> with the employee, even if it is only via LinkedIn. Maintaining a positive relationship even following the departure of an employee is always to your benefit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, there you have it, 11 key steps of the offboarding process.
