Quizplus · Accepted Answer

By restricting eligibility to areas with redundant employees, Terra Alta can incentivize older workers with valuable skills to stay in their current roles rather than taking an early retirement. This ensures that the firm doesn't lose key employees and can still reduce its overall workforce.
