Abstract:

The retrenched workers are prone to psychological distress and may find it difficult to mentally adjust in an environment where job opportunities are shrinking. It is essential for organisations to consider mental health priority for the retrenched workers. They need to be mentally assisted to deal with the grief of employment loss. Early interventions may result in quick recovery and building of the lost hope and confidence. The knowledge of mental health concerns and symptoms may serve as guidelines for decision making essential for building resilience strategies.
