Hi I’m Miriam Dushane of Alaant Workforce Solutions. Hiring new employees can be a long and expensive process, so rehiring former employees could be a more cost-effective solution.
Here are my top 3 reasons why to consider rehiring past employees:
1) Knowledge and Experience
Rehiring a former employee who left on good terms means that they already know your company culture and have experience working within your organization. They are familiar with your products or services, and they understand the way your business operates. AND- they have likely gained new skills that you can take advantage of as well.
2) Reduced Recruiting and Training Costs
Recruiting new employees can be a lengthy process that involves creating job listings, reviewing resumes, conducting interviews, and running background checks. And once you hire someone new, you must invest time and resources in training them. By rehiring former employees, you can skip a lot of these steps and reduce your overall costs.
3) Improved Morale and Productivity
When an employee leaves your organization, it can have a negative impact on team morale, especially if they were well-liked and respected. Rehiring a former employee can boost team morale by showing that you value their work and that you are willing to invest in their talent. Additionally, returning employees tend to have a higher level of motivation and productivity, as they are eager to prove themselves and make a positive impact.
