Etymology

The term 'outplacement' originated in the business and employment sectors during the 1970s as companies began to recognize the need for support services for displaced employees. The concept emerged alongside rising unemployment rates and corporate restructurings that often left many workers without jobs. Initially, outplacement services were primarily offered by executive coaches and career counselors, but over time, they evolved to include a range of support options tailored to different employee levels. Organizations providing outplacement services sought to enhance their corporate image by demonstrating care for their departing employees, thus mitigating the negative impacts of layoffs. By the 1980s and 1990s, outplacement became a standard practice in human resource management, with specialized firms emerging to provide these services. Today, outplacement remains an essential component of workforce management strategies, reflecting a corporate responsibility towards employees during career transitions.
