RESOURCE-REINTEGRATION

Managementspeak for the necessary and inevitable process where after all the skilled and experienced employees who were fired on a Friday as part of the exciting new restructuring or refocusing of the company are re-hired as extremely expensive contractors on the next Monday in order for the business to survive and continue operating. Example: Restructuring produced the expected savings in salary costs, which were subsequently more than offset by the resource-reintegration program.
