To say that the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively affected businesses is an understatement. While others had to face the unfortunate reality of business closure, others continue to survive. Those who survived managed to do so by cutting costs – and as we all know – first on the chopping list are the employees. But are you prepared for it? What is the process of terminating an employee due to financial losses? How much do you have to pay them? Is retrenchment similar to redundancy? Can you terminate an employee though we are in the midst of the pandemic?

These questions should be answered and addressed, lest you open yourself to possible greater financial damage. Imagine being sued and drowning in monetary liability when all you want to do is to save your business and stay afloat.
