Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

It is important to inform the employee of their final payroll and benefits status to avoid any misunderstandings or disputes.

Answer: A 
 Terminations should take place in a visible location to lower the likelihood of violence or aggressive behavior.

Answer: B and D are incorrect. Only the immediate supervisor should not be present during the termination as an impartial third-party witness should be present to document the meeting. Additionally, disclosing the exact reasons for termination to the co-workers may be a violation of the terminated employee's privacy and can lead to legal issues.
