despido del trabajo


Explanation:
el despido pretty much sums up "termination" of employment. But it all depends in your context... if it relates to someone requesting "termination of employment" then, despido does not apply

finalización del empleo


Explanation:
I don't think that the context here is firing or sacking an employee,even though it could be a valid meaning of the terms employed. To me it's the ending of an employment period during which somebody was evaluated,and I base this opinion in the "termination evaluation process" added as context.
The asker wil surely be able to see which is the right meaning.
