Offboarding & alumni · October People

A considered goodbye.
Nothing left to memory.

Start an offboarding and the work organises itself: assets flagged for recovery, final pay and leave settlement, the equity leaver decision, a proper handover and an honest exit interview. Then keep the door open with alumni.

Every exit task, owner and deadline in one plan.

Made for the work
behind the moment.

Explore the workflows, tools and practical details that support offboarding throughout the working day.

01 / Automation

One form. Everything that follows.

Record the last working day, reason and template. October flags the person’s assets for recovery, sets the final pay deadline, asks equity admins for a leaver decision and builds the task plan.

  • Assets flagged and an IT recovery task created
  • Final pay deadline and equity leaver decision
02 / Handover

Keep the knowledge in the building.

Tasks for knowledge transfer and project notes sit with clear owners and dates. With Work Insights, a collaboration footprint shows which teams rely on the person most.

Offboarding & alumni3 answers

Questions,
answered.

Does offboarding remove system access automatically?

Access revocation is an IT task in the plan, with an owner and a due date. Assigned assets are flagged automatically, and admins are alerted on the last working day if anything is still open.

What happens if someone changes their mind?

Cancel the offboarding and October restores the person’s previous status and reverses the automatic steps, such as flagged assets and the final pay deadline. The reason is kept in the audit log.

Can we import our existing exit interview form?

Yes. Import a form to create a questionnaire template, or bring historical exit interviews across so their themes feed turnover and attrition reporting.
