An
Experience to Experience
J This is
not an article about globetrotter reaching a destination.
But surely this is an (generic) employee’s experience
during notice period. Does employee’s
become too casual in approach once the resignation button is pressed? Does the
responsibility vanish? Is the interest
lost?
Employer is more skeptical in earmarking responsibilities to the
employee who has resigned.
Employers are keener on creating a backup or doling out the
responsibility to other team members.
So what happens if the responsibility is taken from the employee
(who has resigned) and given to other team member? Obviously employee interest,
motivation to do the role, which impacts the deliverables!
In turn employer complains of the person not doing work to the
mark, and eyebrows are raised toward employee of losing interest. Employer
drills down to the point that the employee was a bad hire.
Well, this does not happen in all the cases, but in some farewell treats, gifts are just formalities?
Employer is really not happy about an employee and if there is not
high dependency then should permit an early release.
There
is an old maxim, "Love your job but
don't love the company you work for, because you may not know when your company stops loving you". ... Steve Finnell
Does this hold true?
In turn employee, who is not so outspoken, once presses the
resignation button, observed that the behavior changes completely. Starts
speaking very upfront as he/she does not care about the present employer and
this may create a bad belief in the mind of employer?
Even employee has to be extra cautious working in notice period. He/
She should not stray from routine line items.Has to be more mindful of the leaves, breaks, on time delivery of
assignment, reaching office on time, leaving for the day as per schedule etc. .
. .
Employee has to avoid working in a lackadaisical manner and stop
calling “Notice period” as “Time pass”. They are equivalently responsible till
the last working day as they were hitherto.
Employers have to aware as the employees create a brand image of
the organization outside.
Attrition is part of the routine and both employer and employee have
to part happily.
Note: This does not intend to any employer- it just a generic article. This article was written 2 years back- publishing it now :)
