There is currently a redundancy exercise going on in my Organisation, people come to work and are simply shown the door under the guise of
" Redundancy".
Any idea what implication being rendered redundant is? As in, do organisations hire people rendered redundant or just like terminations or dismissals, they think you did something horrible that got you redundant. (I hate that word)

Would love input from everyone who has a knowledge on what redundancy does to a person's carreer.

Redundancy is way different from being fired (sacked).

How so is what I really want to know. Any particular implications to it?

Lets define Redundancy accoding Nigerian Labour Act to enable evryone understand:

Redundancy, as defined by the Labour Act, is the involuntary and permanent loss of employment caused by an excess in manpower.

The Labour Act stipulates that an employer is under obligation to give redundancy payments to those who are made redundant as a result of any necessary downsizing. In a nutshel, it does not mean such persons re underperming. So many companies went underground reccently as a result of global mentdown and staff in such companies are made redundant.

The Labour Act also stipulates that redundancy payment be given to employees who are made redundant as a result of any necessary downsizing.
100% of Annual Gross (Govt Option)

Are you saying that there are no implications whatsoever of being rendered redundant? Especially in the eyes of the potential new employers?
I understand the whole role about the Labour Law's view on redundancy but I am somewhat skeptical about how the potential new employers would view the candidate who was rendered redundant at his old place of work.
