I need someone to give a good explanation to these words; Sack, lay-off, retrenchment & fired with their differences.

The words have raised lots of arguments in our office.

Thanks.

That's the bottom line bro.

I think Sack=Fire and Lay-off=Retrenchment.

For sack/fire, a gross misconduct must have happened on the part of the one who was fired.

For Lay-off/retrenchment, mostly happens when there is the process of downsizing the labour force in an organization. Or letting loose the less productive arm of an organization.

If one is fired, I would be hard to get employment else where, the reason of his lack of employment comes up during an interview process. (Except the fellow wants to shy away from the truth)

While one being layed-off could get another job seamlessly.

You're welcome

Damnnnnn niggarrr
Let me learn
Fired= gross misconduct or you go against the organisation's rules

Lay off= this one make sense. Them dey tell you say Bros no work for you or rather your area when you for be specialist don finish. Oya dey go house. Bonus money dey follow this one

retrenchment: Bros dey go house but we fit still call you back make you resume work if everything good for us.

Then sack: this one na soft fired. But na the same thing with fired. Probably them don set up a disciplinary committee on top your head to check your gross misconduct before them conclude to tell you good bye

Bros op i don try. You owe me some bottles and weed.

Na grammar u jus dey blow

Here in naija, They all mean the same thing.

Even suspension is the same thing as sack

Nice article

Check my siggy

OK.

Quite some similarities between all of them but to my knowledge-

Being laid off could be temporary or permanent. Most cases it's always permanent. Likely no one is replacing your post. Sounds like an organization or company not having enough resources to maintain the workers.
It has similar feature to being retrenched.


Being Sacked and being Fired both projects the similar meaning.
"Fired" could be said to be more less empathic tho.



They all just have different contexts in which they are used. Inshort the reasons behind it's usage dictates which one of them is used.

Google is your friend.
Well, let's wait for some HR officers

Check my siggy

Bye Bye is Bye Bye
No matter in which language or methods they use to inform you

Same thing....

na the same jare

Since 2015?

@MODs, una sabi say enough people will be sacked in the name of ‘laid off’ because of this corona. It is well with us

Sack means you've been sacked.

Fired means you've been fired.

Lay off means... They just later you off.


While retrenchment means you've been retrenched?



They all mean what the word says they mean.

Hmmm

I wish coach Mourinho is on NL , he for help us out a bit , he has gone through all sort of these

Just go home. The difference is the names

hmm

Sack and fired mean the same things. Lay-off and retrenchment mean the same thing.

All in One,U got fire,sack ,nah to go home,not so?
