Also much stricter regulations and norms around when you can leave. In the US, two weeks notice is customary but not legally required in the EU its often a three month contractual obligation. I can't help but think that may contribute to the generally lower salaries in the EU vs the US.
- arp242 6y ago> in the EU its often a three month contractual obligation In which country is this? In most places I worked at it's been 4 weeks (and even this is often waived).
- apexalpha 6y ago>in the EU its often a three month contractual obligation. I don't know where this is but in my country it's 1 month and most of the time the person leaving still has vacation days to use so they leave much earlier. Most people just give advanced notice to their employer though, it's just polite.
- eitland 6y agoIn Norway you cannot be fired early but you can sometimes negotiate to leave early (and as others have pointed out we often have some holiday left.)
