Employee departures happen all the time, be they voluntary or involuntary. Regardless of the circumstances, there are key steps that should be taken to protect the enterprise, ensure a smooth transition, and treat the departing employee with the utmost respect.
An “Employee Departure Checkout Checklist” serves as a valuable administrative and memory-aid tool, especially during stressful times. This checklist includes items such as key communication activities, assets to be reclaimed, and transfer of work and project ownership.
