How you handle any separation depends on its risk. If you are uncertain about how to go about these activities correctly, look into getting a book that provides you with practical information and examples on employee separation notifications and dismissal meetings. If you have an disgruntled worker, you need to begin the program for terminating immediately. If the original hiring supervisor goes ahead and fires the bad individual, it's hard for the jobholder to claim this manager laid off her because he held prejudice against her.

The worker also should sign the form, so it becomes substantiation the jobholder knew the reasons behind the lay off.

Be aware that an disgruntled individual may also claim to "forget" to perform a certain task that they simply do not want to do.
