Survey Paper - Address the Problems to the Employees

Layoffs in business are increasing with economic issues that are arising. This causes problems not only for businesses but also citizens to support their family. This is affecting the way that families and businesses are operating. Downsizing or lying off employees is part of the business that is not enjoyable but necessary for the business to remain successful (SBA- U.S. Small Business Administration).
