Cutbacks at Large Corporation

As section manager of a large corporation, you supervise 30 employees. Because of slow sales and poor economic conditions, you will need to cut your department by 5 employees.

1. How would you do this? What are the different things that you will need to research and address? Are there any legal implications? Where do you begin?

2. How does your individual perspective and values impact your decision? Does that seem reasonable?

(Remember: If you are using actual words/examples from the textbook, website, and/or articles - cite the material appropriately.)
