Let’s take a look at the recession that we may be in or  heading towards.
Here are some strategies that should help you deflect any  pink slip that could be heading your way:  (i.e., keeping money in the  bank).
1.        First lay-offs are usually given to those that occupy positions  that cost money, rather than those that create income.  Try to figure ways to  create new revenue and bounce the ideas off your boss.  Even if not implemented,  you’ll be thought of as a part of the solution, not the problem.
2.        Make cost-cutting suggestions.
3.        Maintain visibility.  It’s harder to lay-off people that you see  every day versus those you only occasionally see.
4.        Make sure your boss knows what you’re doing and how well you’re  doing it.
More later.
