Document and implement exit procedures for termination of employment that include reassignment of job duties so disruptions are minimised and job transfer procedures including necessary knowledge transfer, timely securing of logical and physical access, security of the organisation’s assets, and exit interviews.
  3. Design job change procedures to ensure efficient continuation with minimal disruption, providing guidance on the need for job mentoring, job handover steps and preparatory formal training.
