Outplacement: support towards a new future
What is outplacement?
Outplacement provides support in finding and working towards a suitable next step. Cost follows deployment: somewhere from 2,000 up to 5,000 euros, VAT aside. The cost is usually covered by the employer. The invoicing arrangements are made clear in advance. You work with a dedicated coach throughout the programme. That first conversation costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
Which phase arrives when is laid out in what an outplacement programme involves.
What does an outplacement process look like at Care4Careers in Helmond?
Our approach in 5 steps
Run in this order they make an outplacement programme. The order is fixed because each step builds on the last; the pace differs per person. That is how outplacement works differently from ad hoc application help.
Many people opt for a modular programme: together with your coach you decide where to put the effort. Here you will find our modules.
Personal intake
We start from what must not go: income, commute, trade or rota. Everything after that derives from it.
Coaching and assessment
Beside your abilities we set out which of them still count once you step outside the chain.
Preparing for the market
Your CV shifts to what you fixed and oversaw, rather than which machine you operated.
Job search and network
The writing to companies you do yourself. In this supply chain word travels faster between people than it does through job adverts.
Aftercare and support
After you start we check together whether the thing that could not go is indeed still there. This is really still there.

When moving forward professionally requires new choices
When outplacement is used
A change in employment can be the moment to reconsider what you now need from work.
Your position disappears during reorganisation
If your place is removed, we show how your experience retains value outside the current working environment.
A temporary contract comes to an end
Starting support earlier allows you to use the remaining time for exploration, decisions and first market steps.
Termination is jointly agreed
Where both sides consent to departure, the employer may also fund professional guidance towards your next career phase.
Returning to the same work is no longer possible
If prolonged absence ultimately leads to the end of employment, we explore work and conditions that provide a better fit.
Outplacement in Helmond
From work to work, without giving up what counts
After a forced departure the conversation usually turns to what you want to achieve. More practical is the reverse question: what must not disappear under any circumstances. Usually that is your income, your commute, your trade or your rota, and rarely all four at once.
We know the companies in the chain
From the suppliers and engineering firms to healthcare and the municipality. Which of them you reach by letter and which through someone you know varies a great deal.
Your employer pays, provided it is recorded
A budget for it belongs in whichever document ends your employment, the social plan included. Put no signature on it before someone has read it through: having your settlement agreement reviewed.
Allowances we count in, not out
A shift allowance can be a sizeable part of your income. Moving to day work removes it, and we calculate that before you say yes to anything. How the price is built up is at what an outplacement programme costs.
The first months afterwards as well
A new rota either settles or it does not, and you only notice after a few weeks. Through that period your coach stays reachable.
What you are working towards
You have found work in which the one thing that could not go has genuinely not gone.
Who guides you
The coaches at Mierloseweg
A single guide carries you from intake through to aftercare. Someone who knows how a manufacturing floor runs, and what a shift rota does to life at home. Come to the Mierloseweg, or keep it to the screen.
Our office
Outplacement in Helmond and nearby
Our Helmond location is on Mierloseweg, on the east side of the city. Manufacturing, automotive and technical trades set the picture here, with the Automotive Campus and a dense layer of suppliers around it. Eindhoven at fifteen minutes keeps the search area generous. The question that comes up most often here is not what someone wants to become, but what they absolutely want to keep.
About Helmond
Good to know about Helmond
Automotive here is a chain, not a company
Around the campus sits a network of suppliers, technical firms and test companies. When a project falls away at one, another often starts up elsewhere, and that movement is not always visible from outside.
Eindhoven fifteen minutes away
In practice the two cities share one labour market. Drawing your circle across both shows a multiple of the technical roles without the commute growing.
Shift work is no exception here
A large part of production runs in two or three shifts. That sets your income through the allowance and your rhythm at home through the rota, and those two are hard to change independently.

Park at the door; Helmond station lies a few minutes off. Where travelling is not an option, the programme moves to the screen.
The region at a glance
The labour market in Helmond
The engine here is automotive, with engineering and manufacturing around it; together they hold vehicle technology and manufacturing here, and the openings sit in exactly those places. That is unusual: in most regions demand shifts away from the characteristic sectors, here it largely stays within them.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about outplacement
What happens to my shift allowance if I move?
It lapses when you move to day work, and that can add up. It is no reason not to do it, but it is a reason to calculate it beforehand. We set your current total income against what a day role realistically pays, pension accrual included.
I work in automotive. Is that a risk?
Less than it feels from the inside. The sector is changing fast, but precisely because of that there is demand for people who can handle new systems. Your feel for technology and your grasp of production processes travel with you, and both are just as usable elsewhere in industry. Which directions might suit you is taken up at what kind of work suits me.
Do you include Eindhoven?
As standard, because in practice the two cities form one labour market. If you want to stay within Helmond and the Peel, we agree that and hold to it.
I have no qualifications but twenty years of experience.
Then the task is to make that experience as convincing on paper as it is on the floor. What helps is putting down the problems you solved instead of the title you held; see writing a CV after redundancy.
How quickly can we start?
Seven days after confirmation of the assignment, give or take. Your enquiry itself we answer within 24 hours.
I am nearly sixty. Is a programme still worthwhile?
Especially then, guidance can be valuable. We look at the experience you bring, how to present it convincingly and which types of roles fit it now.
A whole shift is leaving us. Does everyone get the same?
No. Within a shift the starting points vary widely: one wants to stay in engineering at all costs, another wants out of the rota. Which modules someone follows is decided by the employee together with their coach. Closer explanation at the make-up of the programme.
