Work The "Two Weeks' Notice" Approach to Changing Jobs Is Bad for Companies and Employees The practice of giving two weeks' notice when leaving a job is outdated and inefficient, and can be a contentious and expensive problem for companies. While the job-hopping trend may be difficult to stop, there is a less frustrating approach employers can implement that can not only decrease turnover, but also lead to mutually beneficial solutions when an employee decides to leave. It's called a Mindful Transition, and it entails creating a culture that encourages open and honest discussions between the employer and employee about happiness on the job, without any fear of retribution, reprisal, or of being escorted out the door if someone is forthcoming about being unhappy. Managers are trained to spot and diagnose early signs of unhappiness or disengagement. When someone decides to move on, there is an open transition period that allows the employee to begin the search for their new job while remaining employed. During this time, the employee agrees not to give two weeks' notice, and employers don't ask them to leave right away (except for in extraordinary cases). For a Mindful Transition program to be truly successful, however, a company's culture needs to have a strong foundation built on trust, psychology safety, transparency, open communication, and respect.
