Having to be afraid of losing your job after making one honest mistake is such a foreign concept to me, being from Norway. Speaking very generally, only the most illoyal of behavior towards your employer is grounds for immediate dismissal, such as stealing from the till.
Generally, an employer needs to document their reasons for wanting to fire a worker, and something like them not working fast enough is not reason enough on its own. Having a dialogue between employee and employer is very important, such that the employee gets a chance to change and improve if they wish.
The difference between how Norway and the US do everything from employment, to pension and workers rights is so vastly different. I would love to hear what HN thinks about this.
