Is this relevant in a profession that already doesn't have enough practitioners?
I mean, let's say there is a shortage of 100 doctors in a location that currently has 900. If you fire one, wouldn't they easily pick up one of the open 100 slots?

The individual concerned is still fired and has a harder time surviving than the company that fired them.

Not really it's a sort of prisoner's dilemma. The one who refuses to work stupid hours gets fired and someone else has their job. If they stood together then it might work.
