D) Low levels of information tend to prevent wrongful termination claims because most employees just give up.
E) Honest and adequate explanations actually tend to increase retaliation responses against the organization.
And this is the correct answer:
A) It is not standard practice for large companies to explain the reasons for laying off large numbers of lower-level employees.
Explanation:
When large companies lay off a large number of employees, the explanations do not tend to be as detailed as when only one or a few employees are fired.
Most of the time, the explanation is general or even vague, and related to a poor financial position of the company, or a change in business strategy, or even a restructuring of the business divisions due to a merger or acquisition.
