Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Involuntary separation occurs when an employer makes the decision to terminate an employee, as opposed to voluntary turnover, where the employee decides to leave. Angela's termination due to unethical behavior is a decision made by the employer, hence it is an example of involuntary separation. Downsizing refers to reducing the number of employees to cut costs, and outsourcing involves hiring external parties to perform tasks, neither of which applies to Angela's situation.
