layoff

layoffs designed to effect savings.

Textile companies announced 2000 fresh layoffs last week.

Layoff survivors can easily fall into 'pity parties' where they kvetch about the state of their workplace.

The gaiety of the event was enough to make Maria Tapia smile, a welcome relief from the anxiety that accompanied her layoff in January from a job as a finance executive's personal assistant.

The company announced a layoff of 100 employees.

Many employees were worried about facing a layoff.

Due to the economic downturn, there may be a layoff in the near future.

The layoff affected various departments within the organization.

She was one of the unfortunate ones who received a layoff notice.

The layoff was a result of restructuring efforts by the company.

After the layoff, the remaining employees had to take on additional responsibilities.

The layoff process was handled with sensitivity and transparency.

The company offered severance packages to employees affected by the layoff.
