Workforce Reduction

Workforce reduction refers to the process of decreasing the number of employees in an organization, typically due to financial constraints, organizational restructuring, or changes in business strategy. This can occur through various means, such as layoffs, early retirements, voluntary resignations, or furloughs. The goal is often to streamline operations, reduce costs, or respond to market conditions. Workforce reduction can have significant implications for the remaining employees, organizational culture, and overall productivity, and it is often accompanied by formal communication and support measures to assist affected employees.
