VOCATIONAL GUIDANCE FOR THE STAFF OF AN EMPLOYMENT AGENCY

In a telecommunication company, a large number of employees from a particular technical profession had to be let off due to technical progress. The applicable tariff and work agreements required the establishment of an employment company with continuation of full pay and no redundancies. Employees were therefore to be assigned other employment within the company as soon as possible.

In order to identify individual strengths and appropriate areas of action, occupational profiling was used (www.berufsprofiling.de). The participants work on a comprehensive test lasting several hours. The resulting personal profile is aligned with occupational profiles – either for the suitability-based recommendation of an occupation for an individual or for the identification of suitable candidates for a position.
