pretermination
Prior to ending
Pretermination refers to the period or process leading up to the end of something, particularly an employment relationship or contract.
In labor and employment contexts, a pretermination hearing or pretermination notice occurs before an employee is formally dismissed, giving them an opportunity to respond to allegations or understand the reasons for their impending termination.
The prefix "pre-" emphasizes that these procedures happen before the final decision takes effect.
