ELI5: The distinction between someone being made redundant & being dismissed (sacked) from their job?
gpt
If you are terminated (dismissed, sacked, fired, etc.) then you are being fired for a specific reason related to your character, i.e: you did something very wrong. If you are made redundant, then you are no longer required. Maybe that job role has been outsourced to a Philippine sweatshop, or the company is changing hands and that job is already taken, or maybe the economy has crashed and you are too expensive to employ.

Terminated: you've buggered something up and they're getting rid of you.

Redundant: your job no longer exists for whatever reason.
