What not to say in termination?

When you fire an employee, you should steer clear of making personal attacks and avoid negative language that might stir up emotions and lead to conflicts. Never assure employees with unachievable promises like guaranteed immediate future job opportunities.

Do not hold the employee responsible for larger organizational problems nor state unclear reasons which might cause confusion. Maintain clarity and empathy while demonstrating professionalism during conversations to prevent misunderstandings and legal complications.
