Workers are being encouraged to take voluntary redundancy.

What does it mean? What words can 'take voluntary redundancy' be replaced with?

Thanks.

To 'take voluntary redundancy' means your employer asks you to stop working on a voluntary basis because there is a shortage of work. We might say in this part of the world to �take an early retirement�.
