Abstract Large-scale "layoffs" occurred in 2023 for a variety of causes, including cost-cutting, a shortage of jobs, a move in the company's location, etc. Most of the "lay-off" situations aim to stop the company's working connection with its employees permanently. In order to avoid paying compensation and facing legal challenges, this study contends that they are actually layoffs that are a cover for fiscal retrenchment. This paper examines the legislative roots of "lay-off" and "retrenchment," as well as the varying jurisprudential expositions of these concepts. Legally, there is a significant contrast between retrenchment and lay-offs. Lay-offs need special obligations regarding salary and notification periods. This research paper tries to show that lay-offs are 'fiscal' retrenchments with permanent severance of the employer-employee connection, not 'lay-offs', which are temporary unemployment with the intention of hiring back once the industry reaches fiscal stability. Multinational firms, or MNCs, are crucial to the dynamics of employment across different jurisdictions in the modern global economy. Staff restructuring, which can take the form of layoffs and retrenchments, is frequently a crucial component of their operational strategy. With an emphasis on the nuances and consequences under both domestic and international legal systems, this abstract examines the legal aspects of these MNC actions. Retrenchments and layoffs frequently lead to disagreements and legal actions, even in spite of laws meant to safeguard workers. The challenges encompass claims of inequitable treatment, prejudice, and insufficient communication with impacted workers or their delegates. Additionally, for multinational corporations (MNCs) operating in several countries, disparities between local laws and international norms may result in contradictory interpretations and difficult enforcement. Future studies can examine the newest developments in international labor law, how well regulatory frameworks safeguard employee rights throughout business reorganizations, and how transnational agreements are changing the way that legal norms are standardized across borders.
