Involuntary Termination Meaning

Involuntary termination meaning

Involuntary termination, often known as being fired or laid off, refers to a situation where an employee’s employment is finalized by the organization and not by the employee’s own choice. It might be due to poor performance, reorganizations/layoffs, or other business or economic factors. Unlike voluntary termination, where the employee chooses to leave (e.g., resignation or retirement), involuntary termination is initiated by the employer and not by the employee.
