Custodia Human Resources

Custodia Human Resources GmbH is a Swiss human resources company whose services span recruiting, Personalentwicklung, training, outplacement and coaching. Its recruiting practice is presented alongside a section of Expertenwissen, an explanation of the advantages and benefits of working with the firm, and a list of offene Positionen with a searchable Stellendatenbank. Its personnel development work covers Mitarbeiterentwicklung, Teamentwicklung and Führungskräfteentwicklung. The company's guiding phrase is hart in der Sache, weich zu den Menschen, meaning firm on the issue and gentle with people.

Outplacement is a core specialism. Custodia explains outplacement as a supportive service provided by employers to help departing staff move into a new professional phase, with dignity, respect and positive future prospects at its centre rather than simply damage limitation. It sets out the benefits for the employer, including a stronger employer image, reduced legal risk from a professionally managed separation process, and protection of morale among remaining staff, and the benefits for employees, including professional advice on career planning, CV and interview preparation, emotional support in building resilience, and access to networks and job opportunities. The firm advises early planning before a redundancy decision is communicated, transparent communication with everyone involved, and individual support that takes account of each employee's needs and career goals. It brings more than 20 years of experience in all phases of the job search, close cooperation with the Arbeitsmarktservice and extensive know-how as mental coaches. Related services include leadership work, mental coaching, teambuilding and public and in-house training, among them an eight week MBSR mindfulness based stress reduction programme.

Custodia Human Resources works from Rosenbergstrasse 69 in St Gallen, Switzerland, and offers a free consultation on implementing an outplacement programme. The website carries Referenzen and Fallstudien for clients who want evidence of past work, plus sections on the company, its Unternehmensphilosophie and its team. In-house delivery of all trainings is available on request.
