Talking at Tele Link as workforce is cut: Survey examines employees’ fears

Abstract

When struggling companies decide to offload a significant number of the workforce, the bad times are not necessarily over for the people left behind. Negative emotions can include confusion, insecurity and anxiety as “survivors” worry about such issues as increased workload and long‐term job security. An employee’s initial relief at having been spared can be replaced quickly with a concern that he or she will be targeted in the next tranche of dismissals.
