When the economy is bad, layoffs should be skillful. The trick is to reduce the number of people, but the reduced number of people can not endanger the normal operation of the company.
The directors are the first to be laid off. They have high salaries and full benefits, because the real work is done by grassroots people. The real decision-making is actually the boss, which has nothing to do with them. I met a big company in Hong Kong. 1 1 Of the directors, nine were killed, leaving two, one is the financial director and the other is the director who often deals with the government. In other words, without these nine directors, the company will still operate. Without these two directors, the company would not have to move. Direct paralysis
Then there is the deputy manager level supervisor of the slimming department. All department heads were demoted and their salaries were reduced to their original posts. Those who refuse to do so will quit. The economy is depressed. What's the use of being with someone who can't tide over the difficulties with the company?
Next, the secretaries and front desk staff of each department can quit, and the front desk staff of the company take turns to go to work. Those who refuse to work will resign directly. Secretaries and clerks have been abolished in all departments. Why do girls type and make documents? The staff in this department can't use computers.
Through this slimming, the whole company is full of vitality, because there is a lot of liquidity at once. The survival of the company depends on how much liquidity the company needs to maintain before the next order or project arrives.
