Have to disagree, Paul - it happens in some exceptional circumstances, but I haven’t seen it as "standard practice" in the 40 years I worked in IT & Business (usually when someone is know to be a "problem").

I’ve been made redundant five times (and been put "at risk" two more times), and never been locked out of systems whilst the redundancy process took place; I’ve also had to run redundancy processes a couple of times, and only in one case did we lock someone out, and that was because they had made it known they were going to be a problem if redundancies were going to happen (but he was still paid until the redundancy process was completed, and his package was agreed).
