Note: Bankruptcy cases do not include compensate because workers who are terminated due to bankruptcy do not affect the honour, dignity or misunderstanding of the public or other workers as incompetent or no productivity at work. Losing a job does not have to be complicated. In the case of dismissal of a separate employee by the employer, there are elements that affect the honour and dignity and suspicions from other co-workers on the ability or productivity or behavior of the laid-off worker.
