Layoff (also called redundancy in British English),[1] is when an employee does not work due to temporary or permanent suspension. There are legal differences from being fired.[2][3] The meaning of "layoff" has changed over time. It first mean that there would be a temporary interruption at places like factories. In modern times, "laying someone off" is usually permanent, although in some special cases someone can be laid off temporarily.
