Could 'Wanting Them to Quit' Lead to Millions in Losses? The Trap of Company-Initiated Resignation Every Clinic Director Should Know

[Conclusion]
Why can the resignation of just one person shake a clinic's management? Because 'company-initiated resignation' is the natural enemy of government subsidies.
[Reason]
Many subsidies include a requirement that 'there must be no dismissals (company-initiated separations) in the months surrounding the application date.' If even one person is classified this way, all plans currently being received or applied for will be voided, dealing a fatal blow to the clinic's cash flow.
[Specific Examples]
Common pitfalls of 'company-initiated' status in the workplace:
1. Casual encouragement to resign: Suggesting that 'there is no place for you here if things continue as they are' is also a risk.
2. Formalities becoming hollow: If you forget to obtain a written resignation letter even after the person says they are quitting, it may be suspected as a 'dismissal'.
3. Changes in conditions: Unilateral salary cuts due to financial difficulties are classified as 'company-initiated' even if the person quits.
4. Restructuring: Reductions made without efforts such as job reassignment are immediately subject to disqualification.
[Summary]
For a clinic director, parting ways with a problematic staff member is sometimes unavoidable. However, you must not forget that the moment it is classified as 'company-initiated,' it could result in losses of several million yen.
Before thinking about 'how to make them quit,' I recommend first checking your current subsidy utilization status and consulting with a labor expert. Prioritize decisions that protect the future of your clinic over immediate solutions.
