Although Professional Employer Organizations do not deal with Reduction In Force (RIF) issues as much as others, due to it generally being a governmental issue and not a small business issue -- nevertheless, it is an important thing for business owners to acquaint themselves with (in a general "downsizing" sense), and PEOs can and do consult business owners on this matter.
Before a Reduction In Force begins, the federal agency defines the competitive area, i.e. the geographical and organizational boundaries within which employees compete for retention. A competitive area may consist of all or part of an agency. The minimum competitive area is a bureau, major command, directorate, or other equivalent major subdivision of an agency within a local commuting area. If an agency wants to change a competitive area within 90 days of a RIF, the agency must obtain approval from Office of Personnel Management.
Check out our directory's list of PEOs for one that can help your company set up an employee incentive program, aid with downsizing, and many other things.
