called resignation. It is always better to find why the employee has
decided to quit the organisation. Properly conducted exit interviews would
help throw light on factors behind the curtain
Retirement: Termination of service on reaching the age of
superannuation is called retirement. To avoid problems, organisations
normally plan replacements to retiring employees beforehand.

hazards, of course, would attract the provisions of Workmen's
Compensation Act, 1923. The normal separation of people from an
organisation due to resignation, retirement or death is known as attrition.

organisation temporarily for economic or business reasons.
