Hello,
Voluntary retirement scheme is not illegal. The objective of a voluntary retirement scheme is to optimize the manpower resources while ensuring that workmen do not suffer because of management decisions. Keeping this in mind, a voluntary retirement scheme is introduced. The purpose of the closure is important; accordingly, it can be determined.

Dear Prashant,
Voluntary Separation Scheme is not illegal because it is not mandatory. If an employee is not willing to opt, then no one can force him to take VRS. Generally, when a company offers any VRS scheme, they provide a good amount so that there will not be any industrial dispute. For more details, you are free to discuss.
