Why don't they just keep working from home and get fired? Instead of having to quit themselves?
Getting fired with cause doesn't come with severance and looks bad on a resume.
You don't put that you were fired on your resume though...
HR departments aren't that lazy...
No, but it’s illegal for them to do much of anything except confirm employment periods.
Sort of like how it is illegal for companies to fire or mistreat workers for trying to unionize?
The uncomfortable truth is that our laws protect the rich (including their companies), but rarely bind them and bind workers, but rarely protect us.
Constructive dismissal says what?
Ya, sure. Have fun with that legal battle versus amazon.
Yea this is fucked and needs to be fixed.
It's the US, they get fired on a whim...
