Re:Employers say more workers are leaving without giving two...

What's interesting about this article is I saw only two parts where it mentioned critical, employer behavior. That behavior is treating people like disposable objects with no concern for their pay or well-being. Also, reinforcing it by pushing for "at-will" employment where they can even drop good workers without cause. Lots of layoffs of loyal employees at the big firms over the past decade just reinforce this issue.
So, after all that crap, they want to say a person is doing a disservice to the company to quit without two weeks of extra benefit to the company? Funny stuff. They keep forgetting that capitalism says that everyone, not just business owners, should act in their self interest. Truth told, unless it's a stakeholder-oriented business, then everyone should be giving the company as little as possible. Like the company does them.
Companies that want loyal employees that will make sacrifices for them know what to do. They can go back to old IBM Watson or current, Publix Crenshaw approach of taking care of workers along with incentives for them to improve bottom line. Then, the workers will take care of them and much less likely to disappear in a day. That simple. My money says they won't do it, though. So, ditch them the second you get a better offer much like the CEO or board members would.
