From Public sector perspective state if you agree/disagree with the statement made and why?
If a manager wants to release an employee, realistically it should be for performance-based reasons. Using poor performance as a justification for termination would appear to be a standard process. If the documentation process is too much for the manager, and preferably they would like to eliminate employees on a whim, that sounds like poor practice and can ultimately lead to an increase in counterproductive work behaviors and a decrease of organizational citizenship behaviors with the rest of employees.
