what separations in an organization another one that is very cool when organizations not able to pay
workers salaries or reduce their workforce through retrenchment another one is transfer which occur aa a
result of the competence or skills to manage a parrocular location within the organization.

We'll talk about promotion promotion can also come when you are consistent in what you are doing and
this can also lead to a separation because those people that you have been working together before as a
result of that promotion as a result of that title or position assume the office what happened the
relationship will reduce from your colleagues or your contemporary so this one can cause separation.

cope with the current train of the Joe what happened he can retire from work and other thing that can
make you to resign from work could be because of your health status you didn't have a very good health

means that I have a very good record let me go on the clean sheet or the clean note so you will want you
resign or your appointment and other one is this Mr I don't pray for this for any of you but the truth of the
matter is when employee is not productive it is bound to be what this means from service so when you
are not bringing out fruits when you are not producing results what happened the organization doesn't
want to continue to hire people that will not be able to deliver and as a result of this if you find one thing
then that person is a goner so this means I will come this means I will come another area where you can
be dismissed from service is when you have choir organizational property or just through prefrin through
tests and you are found guilty then next thing is to dismissal from service so this means I can also cause
what separation and those people you have been mingle with those people you have been
communicating with what happened you will not have opportunity to communicate with them except those
one that you have koninonia with meaning relationship with them that means you have a good
relationship with them.
