Termination
Terminating employees can be one of the most stressful, difficult, and risky matters a manager or business owner may ever have to do with an employee. Often the act of ending somebody’s livelihood can be almost as traumatic for the employer as it is for the employee. Not only are there emotional obstacles to hurdle but also serious legal and financial implications that could have a devastating effect if the termination is not properly executed from beginning to end. The five main types of termination are For Cause, Without Cause, Layoff, Resignation, and Retirement. Each type of termination has its own procedure to follow and adhere to in order to assure the best outcome for both parties.
Don’t be careless when terminating your employee; Carelessness can have a detrimental impact for your company.
