The release or downsizing of employees is a very emotional process, and there are considerations that should be taken into account. Initially, the leader or employer needs to consider all who will be affected, considering commitments and obligations.  Then determine what arrangements will be required.  Ultimately, the focus is to provide the necessary support and assistance to the affected employees, helping to prepare them for a successful job transition and search.
