High-Risk Terminations
When a termination carries a real possibility of an unsafe reaction, the plan matters as much as the meeting. It is planned and led by certified Workplace Violence and Threats Specialists, not whoever happens to be available.
The capability
This work is planned and led by certified Workplace Violence and Threats Specialists, not subcontracted to whoever’s available. The credential matters because reading a volatile situation correctly, before and during the meeting, is the entire job.
Warning signs worth taking seriously
Direct or veiled threats, in person or online. Escalating anger, confrontations or intimidation of colleagues. Fixation on a specific coworker, manager or grievance. A marked change in behaviour, appearance or substance use. Known access to weapons combined with any of the above.
What you receive
A written termination plan covering how the meeting happens, who is present, how documents are served, and what the exit looks like, built with your HR, security and legal teams before the date is set.
When it fits
A termination becomes high-risk when there’s a real possibility of an aggressive or unsafe reaction: prior threats, a history of volatility, or simply an unpredictable read on the person involved.
A standard HR-led termination is the right process when none of the warning signs are present. Bringing in a specialist team for a routine exit adds cost and signals a risk that isn’t there. Call before the date is set, not after.
