What is meant by Redundancy?
Redundancy happens when a person is told to leave the job because his skills are of no more use to the organisation. This may happen due to many reason, for example,

- A business is losing sales and wants to cut the production level or cost and may lay off employees
- The product is taken out of production altogether
- Maybe new machinery is introduced and it requires different skills and qualifications to operate it.
It is also known as retrenchment.
