GLOBAL REHIRE
PROCESS/PROCEDURES
RECOMMENDATION
Objective
To provide consistent guidelines/procedures for considering the rehire of former P&G managers into regions outside their former location
Potential Rehire
o Highly rated at time of separation - 2 or above.
o Sponsored by line organization for rehire???
Questions
o If employee switched functions/majors do we still want line sponsorship, i.e., former PS manager who returns to school for degree in Marketing Do we still want the PS organization to approve/recommend we rehire/reconsider for new organization? Should Business Unit Head be the sponsoring person versus function?
EMPLOYEES RETURNING TO SCHOOL OR ATTENDING EVENING
COURSES FOR ADVANCED DEGREES
BACKGROUND
Performance is the primary driver on how well a person progresses within the Company and advanced degrees are not a requirement or advancement However, some employees have a desire to supplement their education and internal training by obtaining advanced degrees such as an MBA
Currently, we are inconsistent across regions on how we recognize and compensate employees for taking advanced course work or obtaining additional degrees This results in our losing high potential employees who end up leaving to return to school full-time and, ultimately, end up working for
competitors
PROGRAMS TO ASSIST IN RETAINING TOP EMPLOYEES WHO CHOOSE TO ADVANCE THEIR EDUCATION
Employee Tuition Refund Program
Our commitment to the continued growth of our employees through training offered internally and
externally should be a priority, since advanced skills and knowledge will assist us in competing in the marketplace Our Employee Tuition Refund Program offers us the opportunity to reimburse employees
Trang 2who successfully complete advanced course work, while continuing to work full-time We should embrace
this concept globally and be consistent in how it is applied Details on Administering this Program are available through your Human Resources contact
Employees Leaving to Pursue MBA
Current efforts are underway to launch a Rebound/Rehire Team for top-rated employees who leave the Company, including those who return for their graduate degrees The intention of this program is to track those who leave and encourage them to return More information about this effort is included in a
separate Rebound/Re-hire communication
Employee Leave of Absence Policy for "Select" Employees Leaving for MBA
The Company continues to feel that the learning which occurs in fulfilling P&G job responsibilities
(included related training) is of greater value to the Company and the employee's career with the
Company A strong effort should be made to accommodate a top-rated employee's needs within the context of continuing employment, including exploration of a transfer to a new function
If we are unsuccessful in convincing the employee to stay with the Company, then we should support
their decision and leave the door open for their return, once they have obtained their degree In certain
situations, to keep very highly-valued employees, it is possible to consider a leave of absence It should only cover the period of time required to complete the MBA, normally two years Details of this program,
including criteria for selection, are also available through your HR contact
Managing Offers During Downsizing/Restructure
Content Owner: Bob Pike
GLOBAL RECRUITING POLICY
MANAGING OFFERS TO POTENTIAL NEW HIRES DURING DOWNSIZING OR RESTRUCTURE
Background:
It is consistent with Company values and principles to avoid withdrawing outstanding employment offers during a restructure, downsizing or shift in the business Business Units and recruiting organizations should do everything possible to honor outstanding offers by identifying alternative employment
opportunities for the offeree
In addition to having significant personal implications with an offeree who may have turned down other excellent offers to join us, the withdrawal of an offer can result in a major backlash to the Company's reputation with valued school administrators, placement offices and, potentially, consumers
Guidelines When Eliminating New Hire Positions:
The following procedures should be followed when a position has been eliminated after an offer has been extended Note: Do not contact the offeree until you have followed these guidelines.
1 Notify your Recruiting contact immediately to alert them of your situation Notify Global Recruiting & Staffing if U.S Educated candidate is affected by situation
2 Engage the appropriate line management within your business to explore other full-time positions that may be a fit with the candidate's background
3 Review options for moving existing employees to new assignments on an earlier schedule in order to open an opportunity for the new hire
4 Consider temporary assignments within the business unit that could offer the candidate meaningful work until a full-time position becomes available
Trang 35 Consider positions within the business at other locations as a possibility Although not necessarily ideal, a start in another location could offer the new hire an early development opportunity that may position them better to contribute once they return to the originally offered location Impact of this option on existing employees should be considered before proceeding
6 Determine if a delayed start date would be an option The offeree/acceptee may be very willing to start at a later date (within a reasonable period) In fact, some may welcome a chance to extend their time before starting work No other candidates should be considered for openings until the
offeree/acceptee has been placed
Procedures (if all other options have been exhausted):
If you have considered all of the above without success, notify your human resource, recruiting contact and Global Recruiting & Staffing (if involves U.S Educated candidate) to coordinate the following
Senior Management within your Business Unit must be advised before proceeding.
• Contact Legal to review situation and get approval to proceed with formal withdrawal
• Determine who will contact the offeree by telephone to explain the situation
• If appropriate, tell offeree we will keep offer active until another opening occurs
• Follow-up the phone call with a formal letter (reviewed by Legal)
In situations where the candidate has already accepted, it is advisable to consider a financial offering, such as 50% of any award that may have been part of the original offer It is important to be consistent with this practice and you should secure approval with your recruiting or human resource contact and/or Global Recruiting & Staffing before formalizing
