Briefly describe the two outprocessing methods of handling employees who leave their positions at a company.

Question

What will be an ideal response?

Answer 1

Hostile departure (usually involuntary), including termination, downsizing, lay-off, or quitting:  Security cuts off all logical and keycard access before the employee is terminated. As soon as the employee reports for work, he or she is escorted into the supervisor's office to receive the bad news. The individual is then escorted from the workplace and informed that his or her personal property will be forwarded, or is escorted to his or her office, cubicle, or personal area to collect personal effects under supervision. No organizational property is allowed to leave the premises, including diskettes, pens, papers, or books. Terminated employees can submit, in writing, a list of the property they wish to retain, stating their reasons for doing so.  Once personal property has been gathered, the employee is asked to surrender all keys, keycards, and other organizational identification and access devices, PDAs, pagers, cell phones, and all remaining company property, and is then escorted from the building.?Friendly departure (voluntary) for retirement, promotion, or relocation: The employee may have tendered notice well in advance of the actual departure date, which can make it much more difficult for security to maintain positive control over the employee's access and information usage. Employee accounts are usually allowed to continue, with a new expiration date. The employee can come and go at will and usually collects any belongings and leaves without escort. The employee is asked to drop off all organizational property before departing.
