Stronger protections help good workers too, such that it eliminates some risk in changing jobs, for example, to take on new opportunities that may be really exciting. It also adds some nominal value to tenure at a job (IE, there is a known ahead of time amount of severance you can expect if things do go sideways for reasons beyond your control, like in a merger)
The assertion that it only helps employees who don't deliver is not accounting for any variance factors that may not be obvious immediately.
- mikeryan 4y agoStronger protections hurt better workers, likely more then it helps. It means companies are more apt to keep marginal workers and expect the higher performers to make up the difference
- no_wizard 3y agoI'd need to see data to really believe this is the norm rather than an outlier
- carlosjobim 3y agoI hope you understand that it is not possible to make such data? You have to use common sense to determine if the assertion is valid or not.
