A lexicon to describe layoffs euphemistically became more common in the late 1980s and 1990s as job cuts were normalized, according to Sucher. Previously, layoffs were more rare, and mostly the result of a manufacturer closing its plant in a town.

What a horrible website. Pressing back just takes you to some other bs on the same website via some redirect shenanigans.
Website aside, it mentions a few euphamisms for layoffs/firings and shows a graph from sourced from bloomberg showing corpospeak-for-layoffs is higher than 2008
Average news website with more trackers & analytics than braincells
