New Layoff Terms

Here are a few politically correct terms from IBM, 'productively redeployed' and RA or 'Redundancy Action'. IBM is doing this to 30% (30,900 people) of one of its groups during 2018. Up to 9,000 may be 'redeployed' or 'reskilled' and another 10,100 not refilled. IBM wants 20 per cent of GTS 'on-shore' at a country level, 20 per cent in 'near-shore' locations and 60 per cent 'off-shore'. Seems it is living up to its old moniker "I've Been Moved."
