ICloud Photos Deleting when IPHONE Photos are deleted. Dont want the ICLOUD Photos to delete

I will be switch jobs soon and have a company IPHONE. All of my photos, videos, etc.. are backed up on my ICLOUD account, and I want to keep them there. When I turn my phone in, those pictures on the IPHONE will be deleted, but I do not want to lose what is out on the ICLOUD account. Any ideas?

iPhone 12, iOS 15

If you use the following procedure on the phone before you turn it in, the phone will be erased but nothing on iCloud will be affected. What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
