A worker coop would strive hard to avoid taking that action. In NA corps, this is among the first actions to take. The actual historical case, I reference is Mondragon, who has virtually no layoffs in its entire history. What they do is shift workers from non performing sectors to performing ones. They have economic cycles in Spain, and within the org itself, like the rest of the world but they deal with it more equitably.
